church bells (clapper bells, suspended bells, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Large bells, often in a set of bells, hung in the tower of a church and rung for various purposes, including the following: to call people to worship services; to mark an event such as a wedding, funeral, festival, etc.; or to mark the hours of the day, in order to keep time for the community. For handbells used at an altar in a church, use "altar bells." |

Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Grote klokken, vaak meerdere, die in een kerktoren hangen en worden geluid bij diverse gelegenheden, zoals mensen oproepen de mis bij te wonen, een gebeurtenis verkondigen zoals een bruiloft, begrafenis, feest, of de uren aangeven zodat de gemeenschap weet hoe laat het is. Gebruik 'altaarbellen' voor handbellen die op het altaar in een kerk staan. |
