Bank of Mauritius Tower, Modern skyscraper in Port Louis, Mauritius
The Bank of Mauritius Tower is a modern high-rise with 22 floors of reinforced concrete rising 124 meters above Port Louis. The structure anchors the financial district and serves as the headquarters for the nation's central banking operations.
The tower was constructed between 2004 and 2006 and required changes to local building height regulations before it could be built. Its completion marked a shift in how the city's skyline would develop going forward.
The tower reflects how Mauritius has transformed itself into a modern financial center on the Indian Ocean. It shapes the skyline of Port Louis and serves as a visual landmark for the city's economic identity.
The building sits in central Port Louis and is easily visible from the main roads of the city. Visitors can view the exterior from the streets, though the interior is restricted to banking operations and official business.
The tower holds the title of tallest building in Mauritius and has dominated the skyline since its completion. Only a radio transmitter stands taller among all structures in the entire nation.
