Along the route, you will find many interesting museums and sights where clocks play a major part. Some clock factories will even allow you a glimpse into their production.
Since the first wooden "Waaguhr" clock was manufactured in Waldau around the year 1667, the clock has undergone many interesting changes. Trumpeter and flute clocks, picture and frame clocks, time clocks, regulators and double-bell alarm clocks, so-called "Schottenuhren" and many other pieces up to the modern quartz and radio-controlled clocks were and are produced here. In 1840, the Black Forest clock makers had already subsidiaries in 4 continents and 23 countries. There were companies which took the clocks as far as China, Russia, Turkey and America. 600,000 clocks were produced in the Black Forest in the year 1845, in 1989 the production quota amounted to 60 million clocks and clockworks. About 12,000 people were working in the clock factories along the German Clock Route. The charm of Black Forest farmhouses with their shingle roofs, the clear rivers with their trout, the lush meadows and dark-green woods will be your companions on this route. You shouldn’t miss a meal with Black Forest ham, nourishing bread, kirsch and plum brandy or the famous Black Forest cherry tart. Take your time on the Clock Route!
