Fascinating museum and foundry, still producing new bells and restoring bells , hundreds of years old. The work carried out has changed little since the Foundry began back in the 1850's.

Very interesting tour getting to see the manufacture of bells and the framework that supports them from start to finish. Although it is a museum, it's actually a working factory too. Our guide explained everything very clearly. Well worth a visit.
