The clock was found at the flea market in Pfaffenhofen. It was a bit banged up, one could say.
The glass was gone and the brass shield was bent out of shape.
Everything finally came apart.
Lots of crud. It had been home to generations of insects.
The striking mechanism was stuck
The gears driving the hands were dirty but in good shape
Disassembly. The gears come off
The innards. Fortunately nothing broken
Again. Just lots of dirt and rust
The empty box
The box comes apart. Some of the wood is missing.
The gears after cleaning...

The striking mechanism, refurbished
The escapement, refurbished
The clockwork, refurbished
