Lonely Planet review for Piazza del Duomo

The 60m campanile houses the world's largest astronomical clock, built in Strasbourg in 1733. The clock strikes at noon, setting in motion a slow-moving procession of bronze automata that have various historical and allegorical meanings (pick up the brochure from the tourist office for an explanation of each one) - watch out for the comical roaring lion and crowing cockerel.
