The kinetic sculpture was erected in 1991, on the plinth left vacant by the late-1962 demolition of an enormous monument to former Soviet leader Joseph Stalin. The silent red metronome was designed by international artist Vratislav Novák, and officially named "Time Machine". It may be the largest metronome in the world, although Geneva and Gdańsk each have a larger pendulum clock.
