zegar ratuszowy - Opis:
- The town hall tower in Nysa [German: Neisse] was built in the years 1488-1499. It was 89 m high. Four bells were hung in its helm. Three of them were clock bells. The town hall tower clock came into being ca. 1650. The oldest one, the second hour bell, was cast in 1498 by Bartel Lindenrath, a bell- founder from Nysa. Two other – the first hour bell and the quarter bell – were made by Peter Herel, a bellfounder from Nysa, in 1629. The last one, not being a clock bell, was cast in 1749. It bore the name of convicts’ bell, later also an alarm bell or a „Schließglocke” (English: ‘closing bell’), as it used to strike at 9 pm to get city gates closed. This bell was mentioned in the sources in the 16th and 17th centuries. It may be supposed that it was recast in the 18th century. All four bells survived World War I as they were not commandeered. During World War II, in 1942, the convicts’ bell was taken out from the tower and recast for war purposes, while the three clock bells were left in the tower. In March 1945 during Red Army’s attack on Nysa the town hall tower was seriously damaged and collapsed together with the bells, nevertheless they could still be used. After the war, ca. 1947-1948, the preserved bells found their place in catholic parishes. The second hour bell of 1498 was hung in the belfry of St. Jacob church in Nysa and after the war it was recast. The quarter bell of 1629 found its place in Our Mother of Sorrows church in Nysa, and the first hour bell of 1629 was placed in the chapel in Sucha Kamienica [German: Dürrkamitz] in the poviat of Nysa.
