In huge Baroque complex of the former Jesuit College Klementinum in Prague you can find several towers - one of them bears four classical clocks with black dials and golden hands.
The monumental building complex that is the Clementinum, which, with a total area of 2 ha, is the second largest complex in Prague after Prague Castle, was always a living centre of learning and culture. The National Library has resided in the grounds for 200 years. It houses the most valuable manuscripts and all books published in the Czech Republic since 1807 (overall ca 6 millions of books).
