The clock displays the Earth's orbit, the Moon's orbit, and the orbits of the planets Mercury through Saturn. Most astonishing is the clockwork mechanism that runs on New Year's Eve and calculates the base date for movable holidays.
An impressive, very large, and beautifully designed technical masterpiece.
