EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this coloured lantern slide depicting the iconic Zytglogge, or Time Bell Tower, in Bern, Switzerland. Dating back to the late 13th century, this intricately designed medieval clock tower is a true testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this beautiful European country. The Zytglogge, a Bernese German term meaning 'Time Bell,' is one of Bern's most famous sights and a must-visit attraction for tourists. This stunning photograph, taken in the 1890s, showcases the clock tower in all its glory, with its elaborate facade adorned with intricate carvings and vibrant colours. The clock tower's most distinctive feature is its moving puppets, which have been delighting visitors for centuries. These intricately crafted figures, which include a knight, a monk, a penitent, a Turk, and a bear, come to life every hour, putting on a mesmerizing show for onlookers. As you gaze upon this image, imagine the hustle and bustle of the bustling medieval market square that once surrounded the tower, the sounds of the clock's chimes ringing out through the air, and the wonder and amazement of the crowds as they gathered to witness the hourly puppet show. This beautiful coloured lantern slide, number 50 of Box 181, entitled 'Swiss No.1,' offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved more slowly, and the simple pleasures of daily life were cherished. A true treasure for historians, photographers, and anyone with a love for the history and beauty of Switzerland.
