Bellfoundry Grassmayr

Since 1599 The GRASSMAYR bell foundry has been casting bells. For over 400 years, the mysterious effect of the sound of bells has shaped Austria's oldest family business. The secret of their bell calculations is carefully guarded, continually expanded through research, and passed on to the next generation. For Grassmayr, tradition means passing on of the "fire" - the deep desire to combine tradition with new technology and thus ensure the continued existence of this special artscraft.

CREDAMUS for MAGDEBURG CATHEDRAL

Nominal pitch (striking tone) of the bell: D0 +6/16 with recessed prime D/0 +/0, 293.2 cm Ø, weight approx. 14,100 kg. The mold for the large bell in Magdeburg Cathedral (Germany) is currently being produced at the bell foundry in Innsbruck. The photos show the first mold section, known as the core. The name of the bell is cut out of wax for the bell decoration.
