Zvonice, Bell tower in Hostěnice, Czech Republic.

Zvonice is a freestanding brick bell tower on a square plan, built in 1877 in the Classicist style beside the II/383 road. Its side walls have two round windows stacked above a rectangular entrance, and the facade is divided by pilasters. The smaller bell stage has a single round-arched window on each side and is topped by a pyramidal tiled roof ending in a finial with a three-armed cross.

The brick bell tower was built in 1877 in the Neoclassical style beside the road II/383. Its bell was cast by the bellfounder Martin Weber. In 1988 repairs replaced manual ringing with an electric mechanism on a timer; further repairs followed in 2001, and in 2015 a linear drive was installed for the bell.

The bell in the tower was cast by bell-founder Martin Weber and hung in the bell chamber of the 1877 structure. In 1988 restoration work replaced manual ringing with an electric mechanism on a timer, and a linear drive for the bell was installed during repairs in 2015. The building is protected as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic.

The bell tower stands beside road II/383 in Hostěnice and is a free-standing brick structure, so it can be viewed from the roadside at any time. The bell was rung by hand until 1988, when electric ringing with a timer was installed; a linear drive followed in 2015. Look for the two round windows stacked on the side walls and the rectangular entrance.
