Weltfriedensglocke, World Peace Bell in Friedrichshain, Germany.
The bronze peace bell stands near the Great Pond in Volkspark Friedrichshain, featuring inscriptions in German and Japanese languages on its surface.
The World Peace Bell Association of Tokyo presented this bell to Berlin in 1989, marking the 50th anniversary of World War II's beginning.
The bell rings annually on August 6th to commemorate the atomic bombing victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki through ceremonies and white dove releases.
Visitors can reach the bell by following the paths along the Great Pond in Volkspark Friedrichshain, where information plaques explain its significance.
The bell's material includes coins from over 100 countries, including the former German Democratic Republic, making it a symbol of international unity.
