Visit the Albert Memorial Clock in Queen's Square in Belfast—an architectural gem and one of the city's most beloved landmarks.

History

The Albert Memorial Clock was built in memory of Prince Albert, the beloved husband of Queen Victoria of England. Designed by architect William J Barre, the clock is built in the Gothic style, not dissimilar to that of the Big Ben in London.

How to see the Albert Memorial Clock

Located in the centre of the city, visitors can easily walk by the Albert Memorial Clock. With Civitatis, you can learn more about the clock as part of a guided tour of the city, or as part of a day trip from Dublin!

Did you know...

The Albert Memorial Clock was built on marshy land near the River Farset. As a result, the 30-metre (100 ft) structure noticeably leans over 1 metre (4 ft) off perpendicular and is sometimes referred to by locals as 'Belfast's leaning tower'.
