Well, yes. The "Pealing of the Bells" takes place only a few times a year, right before a religious celebration. In this case, it was the day before Easter. Frankfurt Walking Tours described the 50 bells as ringing "in harmony"...I don't know if I would say it was particularly harmonious, but being downtown for it was an event.
The bells were louder in the Roemerplatz, but I liked the view better from the Eisener Steg.
Happy belated birthday. Wish I had known you would be there, we could have celebrated.
ReplyDeleteA very happy birthday. How nice of Frankfurt to celebrate! I love the church bells in Germany. Our apartment is just steps from a church and I always pause and listen when they start.
