Uhrenindustriemuseum

The Uhrenindustriemuseum displays original machinery, tools, and equipment used in the production of mechanical alarm clocks and timepieces through interactive demonstrations.

Founded in 1994, this museum preserves the industrial legacy of Schwenningen, which held the title of largest watchmaking city in the world during its peak.

The museum received the Luigi Micheletti Prize for its technical and historical achievements, highlighting the region's contribution to European watchmaking traditions.

Experienced guides lead visitors through the machine hall where mechanical double-bell alarm clocks are manufactured using traditional production methods.

The museum maintains Europe's last functioning production facility for mechanical alarm clocks, complete with the sounds and scents of industrial manufacturing.
