The clock is installed in one of the city’s oldest monuments, which was built in 1191 as a tower. The working clock was added in 1530 and was the authoritative clock in Bern from the 16th to 19th century. This popular landmark has played different roles for the city of Bern over the centuries. Know how a devastating fire destroyed the tower in 1405 and how the structure was rebuilt and given a new identity.Till date, the clock is functioning and captivates its visitors who gather five minutes before each and every hour to watch its nearly one-of-a-kind performance.
