Carillon

In Berlin's Tiergarten stands the Carillon, a bell instrument that can be played by hand and was built on the site of the former Kroll Opera House. The tower consists of four individual towers, each 42 meters (138 feet) high and clad in black granite, arranged in a square. You can climb 187 spiral steps up to the player's cabin, 33 meters (108 feet) above the ground. The instrument has 68 church bells with a range of five and a half octaves and is one of the largest of its kind in Europe. It was donated in 1987 for the city's 750th anniversary and commemorates the historic carillons in Berlin and Potsdam that were destroyed in World War II.
