Jaffa Clock Tower is a clock tower on Yefet Street at the northern entrance of Jaffa, an ancient city now part of Tel Aviv, Israel. The tower, which was constructed by the Ottoman Empire between 1900 and 1903, is made of limestone. It incorporates two clocks, as well as a plaque commemorating the Israelis killed in the battle for the town in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.Photograph: Andrew Shiva
height? edit
Listing real facts, like the actual height of the tower, would be a useful addition. Also the dimensions (length x width) of the base. T bonham (talk) 10:16, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
