If you want to visit the clockwork, you can go through the main entrance of the clock shop and a staircase to the large-format mechanics of the world's largest cuckoo clock. This corresponds exactly to the typical appearance of the world-famous watch design, also in XXL format. For this purpose, pine-cone-shaped weights and an ornamental pendulum were integrated into the front of the Triberg clock. Unfortunately, the main road passes directly behind the clock, which tarnishes the Black Forest feeling a bit. The facade front is freely accessible and is located on the side of the building facing away from the parking lot. Currently the world's largest cuckoo clock in Triberg is integrated into a large watch shop. The cuckoo call can also be triggered manually if necessary, which is very convenient for waiting groups. Anyone who wants to can return to the clockwork at any time and take a second, interested look at the mechanics and whistles. Benches in the green invite you to linger. The beautiful facade is complemented by a small water wheel, a movable lumberjack figure and colorful floral decorations, which provide a suitable rural idyll. Past the impressive gears and the 70 kg weight that drives the mechanics, the visitor arrives through a side door to the front view. A small tour offers interesting insights into how the clockwork works and how it was created. The entrance on the back leads to the inside of the clock.
The world's first largest cuckoo clock in Schonach is lovingly cared for as a family business. With a scale of 1:60, this is even larger than the original in Schonach and currently holds the record in the Guinness Book with a clockwork 4,50 meters high. 10 years later, this idea was taken up by the Eble clock park in the neighboring town of Triberg and a walk-in cuckoo clock was also installed there. It is difficult to explain this with the small gears of a clockwork, and so the idea for a large model clock was born, and with it the idea for the largest cuckoo clock in the world. The clockmaker also regularly received cuckoo clocks for repairs and many customers wanted to know more precisely what was defective. The idea for this unusual project arose while working. The imposing clockwork was handcrafted with an electric jigsaw and is 3,30 meters high. It was the world's first walk-in cuckoo clock. In 1980, after three years of construction, it was completed by watchmaker Josef Dold.
