My mother purchased the clock back in 1969 in Germany from a church and shipped it back to the states. The pendulum did suffer a dent in the front at that time. The clock did work still at that time and we can get it running for a minute or two but basically does not work now. The clock has inlaid wood of St. George slaying the Dragon and the top of it has the 11 Apostles and Jesus that should turn on the hour. I did do some research on it a few years back and my guestimate is that it was built in about 1890.
Interested in any feedback on it. Thank you.
