About this event

See and hear the world’s oldest working mechanical clock in action. Made in 1386 or earlier, it is mounted in an iron frame and has no dial. In the past the clock struck a bell to remind the priests to pray. Come and watch while the mechanism is unlocked allowing the clock to strike a bell as it first did over 600 years ago. This demonstration lasts 10 to 15 minutes.
