Cuckoo clocks, which originated in the Black Forest of Germany in the 1700s, are wall clocks that usually have ornately carved wooden cases in the shape of a house or cottage and are decorated with birds and foliage. On some models, when the clock strikes the hour, a bird pops out from behind a door, chirping the number of times that corresponds to the time.
