Three stainless steel discs set into the pavement of Millennium Place, part of the installation ‘Time Zone Clock’ by Françoise Schein. This depicted the time zones of the world with aluminium strips and LED lights (these strips and lights have since been removed) and the capital cities and twin cities of Coventry as steel discs with the names in raised lettering (these survive). These three depict German cities, the capital, Berlin, and Coventry’s two German twin cities, Kiel (in the former West Germany) and Dresden (formerly in East Germany).
