German Clock Museum

Σχετικά

Γρήγορα στοιχεία: The German Clock Museum houses over 8,000 timekeeping pieces spanning five centuries, including the world's largest collection of cuckoo clocks. One exhibit lets you watch master clockmakers repair antique timepieces through a glass window, revealing the intricate dance of gears and springs.

Αξιοσημείωτα: Deep in the museum's vault sits the legendary "Giant Cuckoo Clock," standing over 4 meters tall with a chainsaw-carved wooden frame depicting Black Forest life. A hidden lever in the corner lets you trigger its full mechanical show: doors burst open, animated figures spin, and the cuckoo's deep call echoes through the gallery.
