Klementinum & Noon
Did you know?
In the 18th century, the Clementinum observatory in Prague became famous for its daily “noon signal.”
Every day at exactly 12:00, a flag was raised from the tower to mark true noon for the entire city — allowing citizens to set their clocks and watchmakers to synchronize their craft.
