Glashütte
With 1,756 individual parts, a total of 20 readable indications, a monumental mahogany case measuring 2.50 meters x 1.50 meters and a construction time of 33 years, the clock is something very special in every respect. This year, the clock will be 100 years old. After several months of revision, the clock will be wound up in public for the first time on Thursday, September 11, 2025. At 11:00 a.m., the head of the collections, master clockmaker Jürgen Franke, invites all visitors to the museum to this event. In addition to taking a look inside the otherwise closed clock case, visitors will learn lots of interesting facts about the history and special features of this unique clock. Attendance is free of charge and registration is not required. The meeting point is in the foyer of the clock museum.
