Welcome to my grandfather clocks blog.

The purpose of this blog is to create awareness about grandfather clocks .

The true history of grandfather clocks begins back in 1582 when Galileo Galilei first discovered that you could use a pendulum to keep time. It was Galileo, in fact, who drew the first designs for a floor clock. A man named Christian Huygens built the first working floor clock by using what Galileo discovered. Of course, it is William Clement who usually gets accredited with the first true grandfather clocks .

The best way to share the history of grandfather clocks is to give someone special a gift.
