This bell alone is great, with so many frequencies interacting with another. I remember sitting on the Schlossberg in Graz on Easter Sunday when all the bells of the city were ringing at the same time. So many frequencies of so many bells were interacting that the very air above the city felt like liquid. There were standing harmonies that were weaving through the air or going right through your body. After a while I could not tell whether I actually listened to sound or not. And the silence after that orgy was the loudest I have have ever heard. Bells are awesome!

Imagine living in the bronze age and hearing a bronze piece ringing out when hammered into shape, then creating an early tuning fork or primitive bell. Our ancestors noticed the pitch was dependent on sizes, until, finally, some king or high priest said something to the effect of, "let's make the biggest bell we can out of this highly useful and valuable material."

That's a beautiful sound and it will make that for centuries. My family church in Sussex, England has a bell that's almost 1000 years old and to hear it ring feels like hearing the C12th.

the bell is called " Tabor glocke" and now is situated on Mount Tabor, in Israel. His weight is almost 15000 kg.

[@bobholtzmann]

Interesting factory test - didn't know that large bells are still installed in mounts that swing the entire bell. Recently, church towers in my city have been installing bell ringing mechanisms that rely on swinging clappers instead of swinging bells. This limits any potentially damaging structural loads on older masonry bell towers from the weight of a swinging bell. Hope this giant bell gets similar consideration.

[@brown2889]

I would have liked to know where this bell went. Yeah, ringing the clapper is better.

[@Grassmayr]

Yes, it did. Some churches want their bells to be swung because they can sound different from fixed bells and the sound travels further. The towers that our bells finally come to have all been considering the swinging forces from the bells. cheers, Gabriel

[@MrJohnnysaintjohn]

Although just swinging the clapper might seem a lot easier and more practical, it would not have that Doppler/Leslie effect that we get from the swinging bell. Somehow it seems worth it.

[@femcel101]

@@MrJohnnysaintjohn why Doppler effect matters ?

Funnily enough, this is only the “medium sized” bell. The large ones are twice, if not 3x this size and are specifically made to resonate over miles of land to warn other cities of invading armies, accompanied by a messenger on horseback. The modern day equivalent would be air raid sirens. Theres even some records that such large Bells were used as weapons to cause avalanches from nearby mountains

This may sound a bit silly, but hearing this bell really feels like I've connected with those who would have used bells in the distant past. As if I was pulled back through time and transported into a moment in history, to when it first rang. It filled me with dread, wonder, the weight of time itself. I know this bell is only 12 years old, but it just has such an ancient feel to it!
