If it's not "x" used as a sundial, be aware of this 46 m gnomon (31 m height) 2009 dial in Spain :  http://www.heraldo.es/noticias/aragon/zaragoza_provincia/zaragoza/2013/10/01/el_gigante_del_tiempo_vadorrey_guinness_world_record_251195_301.html

Can someone please tell me what is the world’s largest sundial?   If a vertical tower, how high above the ground is the nodus?  I have been consulted by someone who is claiming that a tower he wants to use as a sundial, which is 162m tall, will be the world’s largest dial.  There are many issues with a dial of this size, which will be explained to him, but I would like to know about sizes of other large dials, please.  This is not just a tall building casting a shadow, but one where there are hour markings on the ground.

 

With best wishes to you all,

Jackie
