Qualcuno conosce la leggenda dell'"orologio matto" di Campo de' Fiori?
https://www.romaguidetour.it/blog/curio ... -di-pieta/
Mi sembra estremamente strano, per non dire impossibile, che un orologio segni ore "a caso", non sarà invece che indica un'ora particolare che però non è quella solare media? Magari indica l'ora solare vera, ma il popolino non l'ha capito e quindi l'ha preso per un "orologio matto"?

Re: L'orologio "matto" di Campo de' Fiori (Roma)
Good eve Luca,
Sorry for writing in English. Dutch is my native language.
I visited this summer the crazy clock of Rome.
The visit was short because my wife did wait for me and other objects in Rome had greater priority.
I was triggered after seeing this small video on YouTube:

If I remember well, the striking of the bell of the clock had no real relation to the "real..." hour.
So, especially not simply a few minutes wrong, but many hours wrong...
A guard at the door let me in for a few moments and I could make a picture of the original clockwork.
Seems not very astronomical to me...
