Description
The towering glass spire of the Bell Tower located where Perth meets the Swan River in vibrant Barrack Square, is a touchstone for Australian and international tourists. The BellTower is one of the largest musical instruments on earth and was custom built to house the historically significant bells of Saint Martin in the Fields church, the parish church of Buckingham Palace in Trafalgar Square, London.
One of Western Australia’s most unique and visited attractions, The Bell Tower offers tourists fascinating displays on these famous bells and the ancient art of bell ringing, as well as stunning 360o views of Perth city skyline and the Swan River from the sixth floor open air Observation Deck.
Over 1 million visitors have already enjoyed this spectacular attraction. It’s the only place in the world you can view bellringing in action – a sought after destination for foreign bellringers worldwide…where you can even have a go at bellringing yourself in interactive demonstrations.
The Bell Tower is home to these historically significant bells, that date back to before the 14th century! Share the story of the Bells and building of the tower through the state of the art audio visual system. See the oldest bell in Australia dating back to 1550!
