Recordist's notes
The astronomical clock in Olomouc is unique in its design -though it is originally Renaissance, the external part has been completely rebuilt after the WWII in order to celebrate communist ideology. Today a weird open-air memento of how lovely a killing beast can appear to those, who know nothing. wwwOsoundzooOcz
