Description: The Clock Of The Charging Horsemen, also known as the Birks Clock, located at the Hamilton Farmers' Market in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Built in 1930, the clock was originally located on the Birks Building at the corner of King and James Streets. After several relocations, the clock's current and permanent home is now the Hamilton Farmers' Market. Every 15 minutes, the miniature knights joust as they rotate around the clock's base. The clock also chimes and plays music. The clock sounds very similar to a carillon.
