Hellengerst (Weitnau) (D - BY) Die Glocken der Pfarrkirche St. Stefan

This video presents the bells e1 -f#1 -a1 -h1 -c#2 [mi3 -fa#3 -la3 -si3 -do#4] of S. Stefan church in Hellengerst near Weitnau. ► Thanks to over 9000 subscribers, thank you! 😊 The oldest bell was made in 1516 by Biberacher Gießhütte bell foundry and was a famous bell back in the days. In the time of "Thirty Years' War" it was feared the bell could attack military forces or raiders to Hellengerst. So back then the big bell was deliberately damaged with iron nails to weaken its sound. These nails can be seen today. In 1700, bell N°[2] was made by bell founder Schirmeister in Kempten. In 1969, three modern bells were made by bell foundry Perner in Passau.
