Poros Clock Tower

Clock tower dating from 1927 on the hilltop in Poros Town, with views over the strait, Galatas and the Peloponnese.

The clock tower was built in 1927, a gift from Ioannis H. Papadopoulos, member of parliament for Trizina. The clock mechanism was made in America in 1915. Since the restoration in 2015, it has stood in a glass case at the foot of the tower, where you can take a look at it.

From the quayside it's about a fifteen-minute walk. The mountains across the water are known as the Sleeping Lady, Koimoméni in Greek. It's at its most beautiful here around sunset.

The best thing about Poros? Walk up the hill to the clock tower. From there you can see the Sleeping Lady: the peaks across the water are shaped like a woman lying on her back. You can see her from the harbour too.
