You might know the "Kuckucksuhr", that typical German clock that has a bird coming out on the full hour, making a cuckoo sound?




Well, that is not the only type of clock with a figure declaring the time of day - and there's a virtual exhibition called "Tick Tack Trick - Schwarzwalduhren mit Figuren" (Tick Tack Trick - Black Forest Clocks with Figures). While the text is all in German, there's a little video for each of the clocks that are featured, and those are all without text, but with clock sounds - and thoroughly enjoyable!




While we're at the topic of time - tomorrow is a public holiday here in Germany, so you'll get no blog post. See you on Friday!
