Astronomical Clock of St. John’s Cathedral, Besancon, Franche-Comte, France 

The astronomical clock of Besançon is housed in Besançon Cathedral. Besançon’s present astronomical clock, made in 1860 by Auguste-Lucien Vérité fr:Auguste-Lucien Vérité of Beauvais to replace an earlier and unsatisfactory one made by Bernardin in the 1850s, differs from those in Strasbourg, Lyon and Beauvais. The clock is meant to express the theological concept that each second of the day the Resurrection of Christ transforms the existence of man and of the world.
