This well preserved Baroque eastern sundial from 1740 is best visible from the tram stop Malostranská. It is located behind a high fence, on a stair tower, inside a restricted area of the Archaeological Institute. There is a breathtaking view of Prague Castle in the background. The dial consists of hour lines, numbered from 4 to 10, and seven declination hyperbolas. The decoration is composed of two angels, the Sun and the Earth.

Sundial Type: Vertical - Wall mounted dial plate
