Prague Metronome
The Metronome is a functioning metronome in Letná Park, overlooking the Vltava River and the city center of Prague. It was erected in 1991, on the plinth left vacant by the demolition in 1962 of an enormous monument to former Soviet leader Joseph Stalin. The metronome was designed by international artist Vratislav Novak. It may be the largest metronome in the world.
Although the metronome is functional, it is not always in operation. A plaque at the base of the Prague metronome reads "In time, all thing pass...'.
The site offers a scenic view of the city and is now mostly used as a meeting place for skateboarders and other people.
