The Black Forest ("Der Schwarzwald") in southwestern Germany is the house of the Cuckoo Clock (Kuckucksuhr), invented within the region inside the 17th century. The lengthy, harsh winters in the Schwarzwald throughout that time meant men and women spent long hours inside their homes, when they needed both some thing to do to pass the time and an extra source of income to supplement their function in the neighborhood mines. The largely forested location surrounding them inspired them to start making wooden crafts. Among the items they created were nutcrackers ("Nussknackers"), incense burners ("Smoking Men" or R?ucherm?nner), and clocks that mimicked the cry of the cuckoo bird.
Domenico Martinelli an ordained preist (1669) was the author of a book on elementary clock which bore the title "Horologi Elementari". In this book Domenico advocates making use of the call of the cuckoo to designate the hours. At that time the mechanics of a working cuckoo clock was already known, and any clockmaker who could also ready would realize that it was both practical and advantageous to have the cuckoo sound off the hours. Consequently cuckoo clocks began appearing in areas that had not previously been recognized for their clock generating. It would be some additional decades prior to Cuckoo Clocks began appearing in the Black Forest.
