The first cuckoo clock was developed by watchmakers in Germany’s Black Forest region in the 18th century. The clock movement was driven by suspended weights, accuracy was ensured using a pendulum. The body of the clock was made of wood and resembled a small rural house. The unusual design proved very popular, and the cuckoo clock has endured for over 300 years.
Modern cuckoo clocks improve on the traditional design by including a quartz mechanism, which is battery-operated. In modern cuckoo clocks, the sound can be regulated and even turned off completely, making the design more practical.

DESCRIPTION:
