    This is where the sundial, probably the only one in the world, was created. When the sun shines, it not only shows the time of day, but also lights up the glass ball behind it.

    However, this only happens twice a year and only when the sun shines - in spring and autumn at the equinoxes, the sun is in the sky at midday in such a way that the rays of light through the hole in the rock hit the glass ball exactly.

      Great sundial.
      Unfortunately it is often in the shade...
