| The Brooke Memorial is just in front the Court House. The 6 meter high granite obelisk was commissioned in 1924 to honor the second governor, Rajah Charles Brooke. At the corner of the obelisk is a bronze panel of four figures representing the main races Chinese, Dayak, Kayan and Malay of Sarawak. Behind the memorial was the colonial baroque Clock Tower added in 1883. |
