Hodiny na České, Street clock at Joštova 7, Brno, Czech Republic

The clock on Česká Street is a projecting dial clock mounted on the corner house at Česká 31 and Joštova 7. It was made by a company from Vyškov and installed in 1992 for the butcher shop on the ground floor. Since 2019 a 20 cm bronze figure of Adam Čekač by sculptor Václav Sigurson Kostohryz has stood by the dial.

The clock was installed in 1992 for the butcher whose shop occupied the ground floor of the corner house at Česká 31 and Joštova 7, and it also served as the shop's advertisement. It was made by a company from Vyškov. After the butcher moved out, the owner gave the clock to the building's owner, the Brno diocese of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church. In April 2019 it was taken down for a facade renovation and rehung on 5 June 2019, cleaned of some decorative elements and fitted with a 20 cm bronze statuette of Adam Čekač by sculptor Václav Sigurson Kostohryz.

Locals call the corner of Česká and Joštova "na Čáře", a traditional Brno meeting spot since the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, when the café U Polenků stood nearby. The corner house held a photo studio from the mid-1930s to the 1980s whose neon sign in the shape of a bear gave the place the nickname "u medvídka".

The clock hangs on the corner house at Česká 31 and Joštova 7, in the pedestrian core of Brno, so it is reached on foot rather than by car. Trams run along Joštova and nearby streets; the corner is a customary spot to wait or arrange to meet. The dial faces Česká Street and is best read from the pavement below.

The clock was installed in 1992 for the butcher shop on the ground floor and served as its advertising sign. After the shop moved out, the owner gave it to the Brno diocese of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church, which owns the building.
