Potsdamer Glockenspiel, Bell tower in Potsdam, Germany.
The Potsdamer Glockenspiel features 40 bronze bells mounted on a metal structure, with the largest bell weighing 1900 kilograms.
The original bells were destroyed during a bombing raid in April 1945, and this replica was installed in 1991 as a gift from Iserlohn community.
Every hour, the carillon plays 'Praise the Lord' while at half-hour intervals it performs 'Practice Faithfulness and Honesty' maintaining traditional melodies.
The bell system operates both automatically and manually, allowing for regular scheduled performances throughout the day from its location at Plantage square.
Local residents note that the current bells produce higher-pitched tones compared to the original carillon from the former Garrison Church.
