Tsar Bell, Largest bell in Kremlin, Russia.
The Tsar Bell, also known as the Tsarsky Kolokol, is a 6.14 metres tall, 6.6 metres diameter bell on display on the grounds of the Moscow Kremlin.
Cast in 1735, the bell was never rung due to a major fire in 1737 that caused it to crack before it could be struck.
The Tsar Bell is considered one of the most prominent symbols of Russian artistic culture of the 18th century.
Visitors can see the Tsar Bell in Ivanovskaya Square, between the Ivan the Great Bell Tower and the Kremlin Wall.
Despite its damage, the Tsar Bell is the largest bell in the world, weighing approximately 216 tons.
