What to expect

1. It is also known as the ‘Moon church’ due to the mechanism installed in the church tower in 1793. The clock and the moon are the masterpiece of a creative mechanic from Oradea, Georg Rueppert. The mechanism that spins the moon is supposed to complete a full rotation around its axis in 28 days, indicating the moon phases, according to the daily cycle marked by the clock mechanism. On the anchor wheel of the clock one can read even today, in German, the name of the author: ‘Georg Rueppert in Grosswardein, 1793′ (Georg Rueppert in Oradea, 1793)
