The story of dumaguete city was named after the word daguit which means to snatch/kidnap. The term daguit was given because of the rampant raids by marauding pirates from south in search for slaves. To warm the fishing village of the incoming raids by marauding pirates the Belfry Tower was created in the year 1811. The belfry is a four story ovoid tower supported by three buttreses. Located near, but separated from the cathedral, it is made of coral and lime with brick facings, and has arched and diamond shaped windows. Today, the dumaguete Belfry Tower still stands proud amidst the modern buildings surrounding it. The amazing huge old Spanish inspired structure that certainly calls the attention of the passerby on the busy Perdices Street is the oldest landmark in Dumaguete city.
