The Olomouc astronomical clock, on the town hall façade, is unusual for its mid-20th-century socialist-realist design. Instead of saints, its mosaic shows workers and scientists, reflecting the communist era. The clock displays the time, date, and zodiac, with a daily noon show of moving figures. It's a quirky contrast to the city's Baroque architecture.
