Description

But how does a watch work? Have you ever had the chance to see the inside of a watch, a clock, an alarm clock, or a wall clock? What do words like “springs,” “gears,” and “balance wheel” mean?
In this educational workshop, you’ll discover the highly precise world of watchmaking and learn how to assemble an educational clock! Come immerse yourself in the fascinating world of clockmakers, where every part, every gear, and every mechanism plays a crucial role in the ceaseless dance of the hands of time. Our clockmaking workshop opens its doors to you, ready to take you on a journey to the heart of timekeeping. To make a reservation, call 04 50 96 43 00 or email musee@2ccam.fr
