Bring the fun of a traditional German beer garden to your home with this Schneider Black Forest chalet style beer garden cuckoo clock. This clock features happy beer drinkers swinging to the music that plays on the full hour, all while Resi, the German Fraulein beer girl, serves them more beer! A water wheel and intricately hand carved and hand painted dancing couples figurines also move to the two beautiful twenty-two note Swiss melodies that play on the hour. This cuckoo clock is finished with an antique stain, with a sign on the right saying "Biergarten" and additional accent colors and figurines that give this clock a lively atmosphere, just like an actual beer garden! Three pinecone weights hang from the bottom: one to keep the time, one for the cuckoo call at every half and full hour, and a third for the music that plays. The clock operates on an eight day movement with an automatic night shut-off, making time keeping simple and enjoyable.

The Schneider Cuckoo Clock Company

Anton Schneider began producing cuckoo clocks in 1848 in his farmhouse in Schonach. Now in its 6th generation of artisan cuckoo clock makers, Schneider continues to produce cuckoo clocks with the high-quality craftsmanship and intricate detailing that has become synonymous with the Black Forest region. Today, the Schneider Factory is one of the largest and most modern cuckoo clock factories in the Black Forest. Despite their size, Schneider continues to hand carve every cuckoo clock, utilizing traditional artisan methods and quality craftsmanship. Schneider's high standards for clock design extend to their workers as well. New woodcarvers go through extensive training, and many Schneider clock makers stay with the company for at least twenty years. Because of this, Schneider is one of the leading cuckoo clock makers in the entire world.
