    This facility was built in 1976. The bell lies in a paved circular hollow to commemorate the bell saga. The clapper comes from the old bell from 1664. Inscription Anno 1664 (added later). Normally there are 4 fountains for the cardinal points.

    he saga of the bell pole and the Thuler bell
    Saage:
    A new, unconsecrated bell once hung in the church tower. When it was rung for the first time, the bell followed on the north side of the tower and finally sank into the swamp (Glockenteich or Klockenpouil) for some flying time. From time to time one even claims to have heard a muffled ringing.

    With the knowledge of the legend, we now know why the bell is lying here in the water.
    Well done and very nice to look at 👌
