Remember my September trip to Antwerp,Belgium for a conference? I have bought myself a decent Cuckoo Clock, small type rather and at reasonable price (Euro 85).What is so special about this famous clock?.
A cuckoo clock is a clock, typically pendulum-driven, that strikes the hours using small bellows and pipes that imitate the call of the Common Cuckoo in addition to striking a wire gong. The mechanism to produce the cuckoo call was installed in almost every kind of cuckoo clock since the middle of the eighteenth century and has remained almost without variation until the present.
Originally the design of Cuckoo clock is from German in county called black forest (as told), and later made famous in the entire Europe country. Friedrich Eisenlohr, who as an architect had been responsible for creating the buildings along the then new and first Badenian Rhine valley railroad (Munich to Amsterdam), submitted the most far-reaching design or rather larger Cuckoo clock.
