Its five-bell wall contains four bells from the Toulouse-based founder Louison (1st floor, 2nd south floor, and 3rd floor). The two bells on the first floor are very special because Master Founder Jean-Louis Louison designed the design to optimize the rotating peal and the sound. I heard them ring at noon, and the sound is magnificent 🤩
