In one at the hour, the man and woman sitting on the bench come closer and kiss… There was a selection of Romantic Cuckoo Clocks. When the clock strikes an hour, she hits him with the rolling pin :-) In this one the concept is a man at work and his wife standing behind him with a rolling pin to make sure he is working.
This one above has the most intricate woodcarving and among the most expensive ones. We had a demo at the factory and as the person described some of the clocks we just couldn’t help smiling at the ingenuity of some of the designs. This is followed by music and the figures just below the window dancing…very, very cute. The shop itself is in the form of a cuckoo clock and at every hour the window at the top opens and a cuckoo bird comes out and cuckoos. Post Lunch we went to the Drubba Cuckoo Clock Factory.
That is where the Black forest pastery/cake gets it’s name from too!!!īecause winters are very harsh, woodcarving developed as an alternative profession for the farmers when they were locked up inside their houses. In winters there is heavy snowfall and the tree tops are white capped. so called because the pines and firs are so dense that at any time the ground looks black.
