High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Cuckoo clock has often featured in drama, literature, art, music, etc., in the Western culture, as a synonymous or allegory of innocence, childhood, old age, past, fun, madness, etc. It has apparently been viewed more as a symbol or a toy -a folksy musical apparatus with animated figures- fascinating and a bit mysterious rather than as a serious timekeeper. Although the cuckoo clock functions as a symbol of Switzerland and Swissness, in fact it only has a slim connection with that country in terms of production. The real home of the cuckoo clock is the Black Forest of Germany.
