Flower Clock

Flower ClockFlower Clock

A symbol of the Geneva watch industry of world renown, the famous flower clock, located at the edge of the Jardin Anglais (English Garden) since 1955, is a masterpiece of technology and floral art.

Formerly only decorative with its sole dial comprising over 6,500 flowers, the new millennium provided it with decisive artistic dimensions thanks to the ingenuity of the gardeners of the Service of Green Spaces and the Environment.

It is now composed of eight concentric circles, the colours of which vary with the seasons and the plants which make up the display.

Did you know that the seconds hand of Geneva's Flower Clock is the largest in the world (it is more than 2.5 meters long)!

Location: Quai du Général-Guisan (Jardin Anglais)
