Jens Olsen (27 July 1872 – 17 November 1945) was a clockmaker, locksmith and astromechanic who built the famous world clock located in the city hall of Copenhagen, the RĂ„dhus.
He was born in Ribe, Denmark. Ever since he was a small child, Olsen was interested in clocks and other mechanical devices.
After hearing of the broken clock in Carsten Hauch's A Polish Family, he dreamed of fixing that clock.
Later, he envisioned a clock that would show every conceivable type of time, from sidereal time to the rotation of the planets.
