Why is the Hassa Buweid Tower called “white stones”? We are standing here in front of the Hassa Buweid Tower. It’s a fascinating structure built in 1976 by Sheikh Rashid bin Humaid Al Nuaimi. Although a modern construction, its design echoes the timeless architecture of traditional Emirati castles. The tower’s name, Hassa Buweid, translates to “white stones”. This name originates from the hill on which it stands, composed of light-colored stones. The Hassa Buweid Tower may not boast centuries of history. But its commanding presence on the hilltop, overlooking the plains of Manama, offers a glimpse into Ajman’s architectural heritage and its connection to the past.
