Lyon Astronomical Clock - Astronomical clock in Lyon - France - L'Astrolabe The outer circle allows you to know the time. It is divided into 2 parts of 12 Roman numerals (noon at the top, midnight at the bottom). The time is indicated by the alidade ending with a fleur-de-lis (here, 12:25). The crescent has the opposite is only a counterweight. Then we find the calendar with the days of the week as well as the months in Latin. The inner circle represents the zodiac, with the 12 signs. In the central part, the Sun moves over the ecliptic circle during the year. Inside the latter, the circle of the Moon and its phases (here in the last quarter). In the background, the map of the sky. Located in the Cathedrale Saint John, the clock dates back to 1379. Writings witness his presence in the cathedrale since 1383, making it one of the oldest astronomical clocks in Europe. It consists of a 1.80m square tower, surmounted by an octagonal turret presenting the automatons and a dome supporting a rooster. The whole peak is 9.35m high. The astronomical part is divided into three parts: the astrolabe; below, the perpetual calendar, and on the right side, the minute dial. Astronomical clock - 16th century by Hugues Levet. Saint Jean Baptiste cathedral, Lyon, France. The Astrolab
