Munich time

When I was just out of seminary I built a large grandfathers clock just over 7 feet tall, and I thought that was a large one. This one is in the Frauenkirche in Munich, just off to the side behind the main altar. It must be at least three times taller than mine.
One interesting thing we noticed on our trip is that many public buildings in Germany have clocks in their towers. But one difference from the tower clocks in Latin America, you can tell time by the clocks in Germany, they're running.
