Castellane Caisse d’Epargne

Castellane - Caisse d'Epargne close-upThis sundial can be found on the wall of the Caisse d’Epargne building, which is located on the main plaza of Castellane.

The dial is fairly simple with just some hourlines from 8 to 17 o’clock. Interesting the early hours have a blue dent in it, why is that? There is a motto in Latin ‘Vulnerant Omnes Ultima Necat’.

The dial seems to be recent, 1991, but needs already some repairs: the image of the sun is peeling off.
