Revisit the groundbreaking ceremony for the 2024 NCSML Clock Tower Renovation.
The renovated NCSML Clock Tower will incorporate an astronomical clock (orloj) from the Czech Republic and figurines made in Slovakia.

The NCSML orloj will be modeled after the famous Prague orloj that is attached to the Old Town Hall in Prague, remaining the oldest functioning astronomical clock in the world dating back to the 15th century AD.
