Atronomical Clock in Prague

We're at the Old Town Square in Prague watching the animation of the Astronomical Clock. The little show happens every hour. There are four figures either side of the clock that are set in motion - these represent four topics that were frowned upon at the time (the clock was built in the 15th century): vanity, greed, death, and pleasure. There are also statues of the twelve apostles that rotate through two doorways above the clock.
