San Marco : Piazza San Marco Torre dell' Orologio
|
End of the 15th century, with ‘digital display’, it doesn’t only indicate the time but also the Zodiac and the different phases of the moon. Two bronze automats at the top ring hours. The legend says that Venice would have made the creator of its mechanism, Paolo Ranieri and his son, become blind so that they could not tell how it worked. Visit the tower |
