The facility's Facebook presence provides some contact information, as does their Website, but neither mentions or pictures these bells.

The English Wikipedia article about the town reports that it was a separate municipality until 2001, when it was merged with Horst aan de Maas.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Eijsbouts bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
