Description: This clock is in great working order. Hand crafted by Emil Scmeckenbecher. Vintage West German MECHANICAL & MUSICAL Cuckoo Style Clock. It is a handcrafted replica of the famous Nuremberg, Germany "Church of our Lady" Clock. The Emperor Karl IV had the church built between 1352 - 1362. The Mechanical and Musical Clock was added in 1506 and still operates today. The clock mechanism is activated at midday, a bell is rung to start the sequence followed by the trumpeters and drummer. Then there is a procession of the electors around the figure of the Holy Roman Emperor."Like the original Clock on the Church, this wall clock sounds off One Bell Ring on the Half Hour and Rings the number of times for each Hour of the Day (for example, at 3:00, the bell rings 3 times, 10:00 = ten times and so forth). After the bell rings the music box plays a delightful tune and the 6 "Electors" move in a circular pattern one complete revolution around the King. The Trumpeters to the right and left that raises their arms and trumpets. This clock was serviced and had some repairs done to it such as.....both trumpeters areas were broken and now are restored.
