It’s a cool clock, but beware it’s located right in the middle of Old Town Square, which is probably the most obnoxiously touristy block on the planet earth. You’ll be dodging hundred of scammers, pick-pockets, crappy street performers, etc.

It show 4 different times (apart from other things of course).
CET, Old Bohemian Time, Sidereal time and Babylonian time. Those are not just different time-zones but different ways to show/measure time altogether.

IIRC the face to the clock was replaced fairly recently (to some controversy due to minor changes) the original face I believe is in a museum not far from the clock itself!
