der glockenspiel


In southern Minnesota there lies a town called New Ulm and it is known for its German influence.  Right in the middle of town is a large clock tower and glockenspiel.  The clock rings on the hour and the doors on the tower open to reveal moving characters mounted on a rotating carousel.  It is a lot of fun to sit on the park benches that outline the plaza and watch and listen to the music and dancing of the mechanical characters.  This day was a perfect day for viewing, too.  What a beautiful blue sky!
