Indexes to tower bell sites
in Denmark and dependencies

Tower bell instruments or collections of 8 or more bells can be found in Denmark and its dependencies (the Faroe Islands and Greenland).  This Website has a site data page for each such instrument or collection which is known.  To facilitate finding pages of interest to visitors, as well as to show related information about groups of sites, those site data pages are indexed in several different ways, as follows:

• Tower bell sites in this area can be categorized according to the type of instrument.  Each of the pages linked here presents a variety of indexes for one particular type of instrument:
  • Traditional carillons

  • Non-traditional carillons

  • Chimes and chime-sized sets of tower bells

• The following pages are not segregated by type of instrument:
  • Combined index by region and city

  • Combined index by city, regardless of province or region

    If you are looking for a specific site by its institutional name (e.g., a church or school) or by the instrument's proper name, pick either of the above indexes and then use the "find in page" feature of your Web browser to locate a distinctive word (or partial word) in that name.

  • Combined index by bellfoundry

  • Sites that are no more (exhibited, relocated, destroyed, sold, stolen, etc.) are included in the corresponding page for Europe.

• Also available:
  • Regional locator map for instruments of all types

  • There is no list of great bells in this region because the largest bell in Denmark is no more than 3 tons (the hour bell of the City Hall in Copenhagen).

• Regional summaries for Denmark:
  • the distribution of instruments by bourdon pitch vs. number of bells and by treble pitch vs. number of bells,
    for traditional carillons and for non-traditional carillons and for chimes.

  • tables of bellfounders' work in traditional carillons and in non-traditional carillons and in chimes.

• A PDF listing all sites in this region is available from the hardcopy page.
