Message from João Petersen

The Galle Clock Tower, also known as the Anthonisz Memorial Clock Tower, stands proudly within the historic Galle Fort in Sri Lanka. Built in 1883 through public donations, it honors Dr. P. D. Anthonisz for his medical expertise and kindness. The four-story tower overlooks the Moon Bastion and serves as a popular landmark within the fort's ramparts. Dr. Anthonisz, a respected Burgher doctor, was renowned for his contributions to relieving human suffering in the Southern Province. The clock tower remains a testament to his legacy and the gratitude of the people of Galle.
