Tips
The Historical Museum of the John Paul II Bell was established in 1997 at the Marinelli Foundry in Agnone, which has been operating since the Middle Ages. The museum houses a vast collection of sacred bronzes, including the precious "bell of the year one thousand". Guided tours are available every day except Sunday afternoon. The visit lasts about an hour and includes the screening of a short film that shows the various stages of manufacturing a bell: artistic design, model construction, casting and testing. Visitors can also learn about the history and traditions related to the bells.
