In 2018, we mark the centenary of the end of World War I and the start of the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648). In order to remember how precious peace is, we invite all owners of bells in Europe to ring their bells for the International Day of Peace on 21 September 2018, from 18:00 to 18:15 Strasbourg time. Join in the wonderful experience of sharing heritage!
