Marvelous Clock Tells All Knows All Too
In Heidelberg Germany a 12 foot clock built by Michael Waitz for 39 years showcases time date season and celestial cycles. Figures bow before Christ each hour while a death figure marks the past hour and a crowing cock signals dawn. Goebbels reportedly urged changes but was refused.
