Friedlandglocke, Memorial bell in Friedland, Germany.

The Friedlandglocke stands tall on a stone base, measuring several meters in height and featuring traditional German bell craftsmanship.

The bell was established as a symbol for German returnees and displaced persons who passed through the Friedland transit camp after World War II.

Germans recognize the Friedlandglocke as a representation of homecoming, with its tolls marking moments of national remembrance and reconciliation.

Visitors can reach the bell by following designated pathways through the memorial grounds, which remain open throughout the year.

Each evening at sunset, the bell rings across the landscape, maintaining a decades-long tradition of welcoming people returning to their homeland.
