Staatstheater Braunschweig. |
The Emil Cimiotti Fountain. |
I went back to the Dom to sit on my favourite seat, and saw a man carrying a huge bunch of large, heavy spanners, which he promptly dropped onto the cobbles with a loud crash. He was chatting to another man about the bells, so I listened in and gathered that he was doing some maintenance up in the tower on the peel of twelve.
Each bell has a name and inscription and they are rung before services and at 17.00 each day for the short "Andacht" a Devotion or Meditation which is accompanied by organ music. Lovely music and with German spoken so slowly that I can understand every word. Well virtually every one!
