Mr Monkey scampered across the square to have a last look at the Astronomical Clock, where he found out that the clock was a popular backdrop for photos of newly-wed couples. Around the corner, Mr Monkey found 27 crosses, a pair of crossed swords and a crown of thorns which mark the execution in 1621 of 27 Czech noblemen, leaders of Rebellion of the Estates.
