The Forchtenberg Tower Clock is the oldest functioning tower clock in the world
The Backhaus Clock, also known as the Forchtenberg Tower Clock, is a historical mechanical tower clock located in Forchtenberg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is notable for the year 1463 engraved on its frame in Gothic script, which marks it as the oldest dated tower clock still in operation in the world.[1] Unlike the contentious dating of other ancient clocks, such as the one in Salisbury Cathedral, the Forchtenberg Clock's date is clearly inscribed on the clock itself, though it remains ambiguous whether this date refers to the clock's original construction or an early repair.[2]
