These clocks are seen when entering the main Exhibit Room at The Canadian Clock Museum. To the right is the unique Midgets Palace "grandfather" clock with a weight-driven, Berlin period Pequegnat movement.  The Midgets Palace, located on Rachel Street East in Montreal, was the home of Mr. and Mrs. Philippe Nicol and their son Philippe Jr.  This family of little people operated their home as a tourist attraction and doll hospital for many decades in the early/mid 20th century.
