The Zytglogge tower (German: Zeitglockenturm) in Bern, Switzerland is famous for its astronomical clock from the 15th century. The hand symbol displays the position of the sun (left is east, right is west), while a golden and black ball shows the position of the moon. The angle between this two marks the lunar phase.

The Zodiac is the moving part. The three concentric golden rings show the maximal sunhight in the summer (outer most) at spring or autumn (middle) and in winter (inner most).

At the right is a figure play, which is moving every hour has also a sound by bells.
