waiting for the apostles

The astronomical clock of Prague is a very complex mechanism, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details. A calendar dial with medallions represents the months. "The Walk of the Apostles" is a clockwork hourly show of figures of the Apostles and other moving sculptures. At every hour there are hundreds of tourist standing there and waiting for the apostles to appear.
