St Mark's clocktower

Piazza San Marco, Venice. Above the clock is a digital display of the hour (in roman numerals) and minute (in 5 minute steps). Twice a year the numbers are removed and an automated procession of an angel and the three Magi passes in front of the virgin and child statue. On the next level is the winged lion, symbol of the city, and on the top two giant figures strike the hour.
