This historic bell was cast in 1761 in Gniezno by bellmaker Jan Zachariasz Neuberdt and weighs 1,450 kg with a height of 108 cm and a ring diameter of 135 cm. It features a relief of Blessed Bogumił, the Archbishop of Gniezno, holding a cross, along with Latin inscriptions including "I have become as sounding brass" from Corinthians.

The bell was damaged during a fire in 1945, resulting in a torn crown that is now decorated with angel heads, and it currently stands by the southern walls of the cathedral.

The bell originally produced the musical note E-flat and bears the maker's inscription on its cap between ornamental bands.
