Elliott Tower, Carillon tower at Oakland University campus in Auburn Hills, US.

The Elliott Tower rises 151 feet high with 49 cast bronze bells, featuring a playing cabin positioned at 67 feet above ground level.

The structure opened in September 2014 following a donation from Hugh and Nancy Elliott, becoming the fourteenth carillon tower in Michigan.

Musicians perform weekly concerts every Friday at noon, with the carillon bells playing traditional Westminster Quarter chimes throughout the day.

The tower sits between Oakland Center, Kresge Library, and O'Dowd Hall, with a landscaped plaza containing programmable water features at its base.

The largest bell in the carillon weighs 5,000 pounds and measures 5 feet across, while the smallest bell weighs just 24 pounds.
