It can be assumed that on the one hand the inspiration from the domestic animal world, as well as the comparatively simple construction, led to the fact that one chose a cuckoo when building the first Schwarzwald clock.

Handcrafted german Grandfather Clocks are a technical fascination

Mechanical cuckoo clocks provide only one requirement to the owner: they must be reared. For this purpose, the weights on the chain hoist of the Black Forest cuckoo clock are each pulled upwards by hand and then moved downwards again by the gravitational force. The movement is driven by the resulting force. The trigger mechanism of the beat is blocked until the minute hand reaches the 12 o'clock position. Then a series of mechanisms are triggered and the clock begins to beat and the cuckoo calls.
