Clocktowers in Malaysia

Clock Towers in Malaysia (10 October 2022)

As you travel across Malaysia, you will discover clock towers in almost every town and city. The majority were built around the time of Independence, when many small towns have new clock towers built to commemorate the occasion. There are also older clock towers in the major cities of Malaysia. These were built in the early 20th century or 19th century, by wealthy benefactors as well by the British. Fewer clock towers are built nowadays, as most people now own watches and can tell time without the need to refer to a clock tower.

Listed on this page are the clock towers in the Federal Territories as well as in the States of Malaysia.
