Solothurn
Märetplatz (2)

The Clock Tower (Zeitglockenturm) is the oldest building in the city. It was erected on the Märetplatz in the 12th or 13th century. Its clock dates from 1452, with a mechanism that was replaced in 1545. Under the dial, three statues (a knight, a king and the death) are animated each hour by a mechanism to remind the meaning of life.
