Where you are a person, not just a number
The Glockenspiel
The Glockenspiel is totally unique to the town of Stratford and just happens to be the first of its kind in our wonderful country, New Zealand.
There were no plans or designs from which to construct the Glockenspiel. As ideas from overseas were not viable, the whole project had to be designed from 'scratch' by the local engineers.
The Glockenspiel figures were created by the well known Nigel Ogle, owner of Tawhiti Museum just out of Hawera in South Taranaki. Nigel was appointed to plan and manufacture the figures. There are six figures in total. Three are of Romeo and three are of Juliet. Nigel has gained an international reputation for being able to create such lifelike figures.
The Glockenspiel shows each day at the following times; 10 am, 1 pm 3 pm and 7 pm.
The amazing Glockenspiel may be easily observed from opposite the clocktower on the footpath in Broadway (State Highway 3) just outside the Bank of New Zealand (BNZ).
