Did you know the Prague Astronomical Clock shows much more than just time? The blue part means day, red is twilight, and black is night. In the middle is a model of the universe as people saw it in the Middle Ages. It shows modern time, Old Czech time, zodiac signs, and even the Sun and Moon's position. Below is a calendar dial with name days, months, and seasons. On the sides, moving figures appear every hour – like Death ringing his bell, reminding us that life is short. Above them, the twelve Apostles appear and a golden rooster marks the new hour. The clock has been here since 1410 – and it still works!
