Modern clocks and sundials
Time on a grand scale, from the Belle Époque to today. At Parc de la Villette, a sundial from 1989. At Gare de Lyon, the belfry and clock of 1901. At Rambuteau, the Défenseur du Temps (1979), an automaton by Jacques Monestier. At Les Halles, a 1988 sundial in the garden. At Concorde, the obelisk can serve as a gnomon. At the Musée d'Orsay, the great clock of the former station (1900). Then two contemporary sundials: place Dupleix (1991) and Parc André-Citroën (1992).
