World Carillon Web Site Index 2004

Included in this index are carillons with 23 or more bells with a baton-type keyboard. This index of traditional carillons was checked against the World Carillon Federation carillon list. If you find any errors, please let me know. If you know a site that I have missed, please e-mail me. Reporting broken links is also much appreciated. E-mail me.

The following index includes web sites that provide data, history, or pictures about the carillon in question. Of course, these sites may have incorrect information.

In an effort to help you find what you're looking for here's a key to decode the letters after each of the sites:
(Number) = number of bells
(O) = official site of host institution
(T) = tourism site
(U) = unofficial site, usually personal
(language) = no English available, all sites are in English unless otherwise denoted
(NI) = not too much information
(Picture only) = no data available on web site

I am currently in the process of removing broken links and searching for where various sites have moved. -- HC
