The Jaffa Clock Tower is a historic landmark located in the ancient port city of Jaffa, now part of Tel Aviv, Israel. Erected in 1903 during the Ottoman period, it stands at the northern entrance to the Jaffa old city. The tower was built to commemorate the silver jubilee of Sultan Abdul Hamid II's reign. Constructed from limestone, it features a clock on each of its four faces and has become an iconic symbol of the area, representing a blend of cultural and historical significance.
