Furtwangen
Deutsches Uhrenmuseum
In midst of the clock region it becomes evident how intensive
the Black Forest is characterized by the clock industry. From
the sun dial clock to an atomic clock, from the precious pendulum
to the kitchen clock – this famous collection presents also
an international overall perspective in view of time measuring
possibilities.
