Bell tower of St Anastasia's church, in the Marasia on the outskirts of Rhodes.

It was probably built during the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamid II (from an inscription on a water fountain on the church wall)

The church is dedicated to Anastasia of Sirmium. An inscription at the base of the tower reads -

Holy Temple of Saint Aia Agiaia
Pharmacist
