Zocalo. Not sure if this is a one-off or one of a chain.

Astronomical Clock in Oldtown Prague

I spent a lot of time (no pun intended) photographing that clock, less time trying to understand its intricacies - the gearing necessary to show all the astronomic conditions visible on its face totally blows my mind.. There's a great view from the top.

Clock, a vastly simpler one that the astronomic clock at "A." The little figures move on the hour, rather slowly and clumsily. The horseman is St. George who strikes the dragon with his sword, a blow that might vanquish an ant, if Georgie were lucky.

Jewelry hoard(s), Viking era. During the first 1500 years of the modern era, many people buried or made offerings of valuable things, much to the satisfaction of archaeologists and historians.

We enjoyed watching it when it tolled at noon and the Apostles came out. We did not have the chance to go to the top for the view there. I hope to return and do so.

Obviously I forgot to type "Interesting" before "jewelry."

I knew there was a rational explanation.
