Franz Kafka (1883-1924)

Kafka's Prague - Astronomical Clock
Just around the corner from Kafka's birthplace in Prague is the Old Town Square (Staroměské náměstí) and the Old Town Hall (Staroměská radnice). Tourists gather beneath the Town Hall's astronomical clock to listen to the bells and watch the mechanical figures move.
