With a compass in hand, telling the time will be a breeze with your portable sundial, assembled and decorated during this workshop.
About this Event

How did people measure time before watches existed?

They looked at the sun.

Since the dawn of time, people have looked to the sky to tell the time.

The International Watchmaking Museum in La Chaux-de-Fonds invites you to build your own pocket sundial. Are you up for the challenge of reading solar time?
