Presenting one of the largest collections of clocks in the southern hemisphere, Claphams National Clock Museum was established in the 1940s by Archibald Clapham. Visit these amazing timepieces and hear the symphony of sounds, chiming bells, cuckoos calling, trumpets blowing, and music boxes playing.

Regular tours are conducted where you can learn about the international history of clock making from well informed entertaining guides. This is an educational and entertaining experience for the whole family.

Spend some quality "Time" reliving an era when beauty and workmanship was all important and clocks were made to last forever.
