Mohamedally Tower, Clock tower in Siddhpur, India.

The Mohamedally Tower reaches 60 feet in height and displays four European clocks mounted on each side of its Indo-Saracenic structure.

The tower was constructed in 1915 as compensation for the demolition of Devdi gate, which was removed to allow passage for an elephant during a wedding celebration.

The structure exemplifies the Indo-Saracenic architectural period, incorporating Gothic revival elements with traditional Indian design features such as pointed arches and decorative brackets.

Located at coordinates 23.91926, 72.36997, the tower serves as a central reference point and timekeeper for residents and visitors in Siddhpur Taluka.

The construction cost of 15,000 rupees in 1915, equivalent to 3.8 million rupees today, was funded by merchant Mohamedally Sheikh Sharafally Hararwalla during British colonial rule.
