The Horizontal Dial for the Isserplatz

The detailed map of the Isserplatz shows how the proposed Horizontal Dial would be laid out using the 25 x 6 cm Granite stones to form the white hour and zodiac lines and relaying the 8 x 8 cm Porphyry stones to form the red field. The position of the 2.73 m tall tiled Obelisk to be constructed as the perpendicular Style having a 13 cm sphere mounted as the Nodus of the Dial is shown in both figures on this page. It is described in detail on the accompanying page. PlatzPlan
