The Astronomical Clock is arguably the most famous thing to see in the city as it dates back to 1410. It is the oldest astronomical clock still working today! It can be found in Old Town Square at the Old Town Hall which is right in the heart of the city.
The three main components of the clock are:
- Astronomical dial
- Sun and moon depiction
- 12 apostles
All 12 apostles come to life at the top of every hour in the windows and it is a site to see for sure!
Since the clock is in the center of Old Town Square, you are surrounded by many great restaurants. Restaurant Cafe U Tyna, Restaurant White Horse, Maitrea and Mlejnice are some of the most popular restaurants in the square. After eating in Old Town Square be sure to walk around to check out the iconic colorful buildings that make up the square.
