Cuckoo Clock Black Forest House with Beer Garden Scene

Bring the gemütlich charm of a traditional German beer garden into your home with the HEKAS Model 869 EX cuckoo clock — a beautifully detailed Black Forest house that captures the joy of simple moments and authentic craftsmanship.

This handcrafted timepiece tells a lively story. Designed as a classic “Schwarzwaldhaus” with a finely layered shingle roof, it features a charming outdoor scene where a relaxed beer drinker enjoys his time at a wooden table, accompanied by a loyal dog and surrounded by trees and rustic details. A traditionally dressed waitress completes the setting, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like a peaceful afternoon in the Black Forest. The moving beer drinker adds animation and character, bringing this miniature world to life with every passing hour.

At its core, the clock is powered by a traditional 8-day mechanical movement, meaning it only needs to be wound once a week. On the hour, a wooden cuckoo bird appears to announce the time, adding the unmistakable sound and charm of a true German cuckoo clock. The classic chain-driven weights and swinging pendulum ensure reliable operation, while the manual strike shut-off allows you to silence the cuckoo call whenever you prefer quiet.

This model includes the distinctive features of the HEKAS EX line, with a fully wooden dial, carefully shaped wooden hands, and wooden numerals, all perfectly matching the natural tones of the clock. The wooden cuckoo bird further enhances the authenticity, emphasizing the use of traditional materials throughout the entire piece.

Every detail reflects true Black Forest craftsmanship. From the finely carved wooden house and detailed figures to the carefully painted elements and moving beer drinker, this clock is a celebration of tradition, culture, and skilled artistry. It is more than just a timepiece — it is a living scene that brings warmth, character, and a sense of storytelling into your home.

We are especially proud to offer this clock made by our friend HEKAS, a family-run manufacturer located in the heart of Germany’s Black Forest. Since 1938, HEKAS has been dedicated to producing authentic cuckoo clocks with exceptional quality and attention to detail. Each clock is handcrafted using traditional techniques, preserving a legacy that has been passed down through generations.
