More about the place
The Jaffa Clock Tower stands in the center of Clock Square, from which Yefet Street, Beit Eshel Street, and Raziel Street branch out. It was built between 1900 and 1903 to mark 25 years of the reign of Abdul Hamid II, the Ottoman Sultan, and is one of six such towers built across the country for that purpose. In a renovation that began in 1962, stained-glass windows and iron grilles designed by artist Arie Koren were installed, and in 2001 it was renovated again and the square was redesigned.
