The most remarkable thing in the church of St. Mary is the clock. At the beginning of the 16th century, City council initiated the construction of the watch in memory of the adoption of the Golden Deed in 1356. The Royal Deed recognized the complete sovereignty of the dukes in their lands. Figures of great lords show the performance on the window of the watch. Every noon the bell held by herald figure notifies the show. Herald appears in the open door on the turret. Behind him trumpeter, flutist and drummer perform. In the center, the emperor’s figure greets with a scepter seven bowing dukes.
