CAMPANILE

from Eastern Cape News · host SABC News and Current Affairs

The iconic Campanile tower with bells in Port Elizabeth has been reopened after a face lift of almost twenty million rand. It was built in 1923 as commemoration of the landing of the 1820 Settlers. The red brick tower is a well known landmark in the Friendly City, and the 23 renovated brass bells of two octaves, will ring over the Bay again every 15 minutes after being quiet for years. Veronica Fourie reports.
