Our Cuckoo Clocks often come in the shape of a typical Black Forest House. This Farm Residence is made mainly of wood, and due to the hard winters, the roof has a very long overhang to protect the area around the house. Because of the close proximity of the Black Forest to Switzerland, we also have many chalet-style houses for our cuckoo clocks, a country house style with a flat pitched roof. The wide spread of the roof on both of these house designs provides protection for the many flower boxes around the house.
