The World Time Clock is a popular landmark and meeting point in Berlin. It is a large clock that displays the time in different cities around the world. The clock was designed by Erich John and was installed in 1969. It consists of a cylindrical structure with a rotating disc that features the names of various cities and their corresponding time zones. The World Time Clock has become an iconic symbol of Alexanderplatz and a notable feature of Berlin's cityscape. It is often used as a reference point for meeting friends or as a meeting place for tours and gatherings. The clock's central location makes it easily accessible, and it is surrounded by shops, cafes, and other attractions in the Alexanderplatz area. Please note that while the information provided here was accurate up until September 2021, it's always a good idea to double-check with current sources or official websites for the latest details on the World Time Clock in Berlin.

The Weltzeituhr is a clock that shows the time in 24 time zones. The clock is a large turret-style clock displays the time zones and therefore the offset to calculate the actual time in the required city. The clock is topped with a sculpture of the solar system as a sphere, which also rotates. Not sure how accurately the planetary movements are simulated though. The clock is popular with tourists, but I think it looks okay and wouldn't go out of the way to see it unless you happen to be going to Alexanderplatz. A bit daft having to do mental arithmetic to tell the time, but meh.

The World Clock also known as the Urania World Clock, is a large turret-style world clock located in the public square of Alexanderplatz in Mitte, Berlin (Germany). By reading the markings on its metal rotunda, you can determine the current time in 148 major cities from around the world. We tried to capture & read it on our trip to berlin in last summers. This place is always crowded with people mostly tourists as it surrounds many local markets & play spots. This is a major tourist attraction in berlin, don’t miss it on your next trip to Berlin. Happy Exploring.

Some photos we had seen online appear to be very misguiding. I expected to see a ginormous structure, but the clock itself is not very big. As a matter of fact, we passed in its vicinity a few times before realizing what we were looking for. It's on the square, and it might be very difficult to take a proper photo of it during the workweek because people huddle under its shade while waiting for the tram. It does show correct world time. Doesn't make any sounds, and it's a 1-minute thing. Don't get too excited if you don't want to be disappointed.

Die Weltzeituhr in Berlin ist ein markantes Wahrzeichen, das sich am Alexanderplatz im Zentrum der Stadt befindet. Sie wurde im Jahr 1969 von Erich John entworfen und besteht aus einem großen zylindrischen Sockel, auf dem sich 24 goldene Metalltafeln befinden, die die verschiedenen Zeitzonen der Welt repräsentieren. Auf diesen Tafeln sind Städtenamen und die jeweiligen Uhrzeiten abgebildet. Die Uhr selbst besteht aus einem inneren Ring, der die Minuten anzeigt, und einem äußeren Ring, der die Stunden anzeigt. Beide Ringe sind mit Leuchtdioden beleuchtet, was die Uhr auch nachts gut sichtbar macht. Die Weltzeituhr ist nicht nur ein nützliches Instrument zur Anzeige der Uhrzeit in verschiedenen Teilen der Welt, sondern auch ein beliebter Treffpunkt und ein Symbol für die Vielfalt und Globalisierung unserer Welt. Seit ihrer Errichtung ist die Weltzeituhr zu einem bekannten Touristenziel geworden und dient als Orientierungspunkt für Einheimische und Besucher gleichermaßen. Sie steht inmitten des geschäftigen Treibens des Alexanderplatzes, umgeben von Geschäften, Restaurants und Hotels, und zieht täglich zahlreiche Menschen an, die sich um sie versammeln, um die Uhrzeit abzulesen oder einfach nur das geschäftige Treiben zu beobachten. Die Weltzeituhr hat im Laufe der Jahre verschiedene Renovierungen und Restaurierungen erfahren, um ihre Funktionalität und ihr ästhetisches Erscheinungsbild zu erhalten. Sie bleibt jedoch ein zeitloses Symbol für die Verbundenheit der Menschen über Grenzen und Kontinente hinweg und steht für die ständige Bewegung und Veränderung der Zeit in unserer globalisierten Welt.
