I have always been fascinated by sundials and this magnificent "time piece" was photographed on the south side of the southern tower of Chartres Cathedral.
Unfortunately, due to it being a cloudy day, I was not able to read the time.
Although the sundial bears the date 1528, this is in fact a 20th century replica. The original sculpture is kept in the crypt of the cathedral.
