What is a cuckoo clock?
A cuckoo clock is a wooden clock, handmade in Germany with a chalet-style or ornately carved facade. Traditionally it uses precise weights to drive the inner clockwork along, with a “cuckoo” singing its tune to announce the striking of an hour. However, there are many variations of cuckoo clocks, so let’s find out more!
How does a mechanical cuckoo clock work?
The cuckoo clock keeps time by the exact weights hanging on a chain, which turns the internal clockwork. Over time the weights slowly drop until a set time when they are pulled back up to rewind the clock.
How does a quartz cuckoo clock work?
Batteries power the quartz cuckoo clock, so the weights are only for decoration. The battery lasts for approximately one year, making the maintenance of a
quartz cuckoo clock minimal.
What Is a 1 Day cuckoo clock?
One day cuckoo clocks are hand-wound mechanical cuckoo clocks where the weights take 24 hours to reach the ground. This means you have to wind the clock and pull the weights up daily.
What is an 8 day cuckoo clock?
An
8 day cuckoo clock is similar, but here, the weights take one week to reach the ground. The weights of an 8 day cuckoo clock need to be wound once a week.
Where Is the cuckoo clock-Factory?
Only one place makes authentic cuckoo clocks, and that’s the Black Forest, Germany. All cuckoo clock factories are in the Black Forest, Germany, around our town, Schoenwald. Why not
