Carillon (A tower filled with 37,150 pounds of bells).
The unique beauty of music in the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.
The Basilica's Knights Tower is the second-tallest building in Washington, D.C. - surpassed only by the Washington Monument!
Knights Tower pierces the skies at an impressive 329 feet.
It is also home to the Basilica’s 56-bell carillon, which has rung out during pivotal moments in the life of America’s Catholic Church.
The 56 bells of the carillon cover a range of two octaves and vary in weight from 21 lbs. to 7200 lbs. Altogether, they weigh 37,150 pounds!
On the largest bell, the Mary Bell, the following text is written:
Mary is my name.
Mary is my sound.
Beloved Mother
Queen of Heaven and Earth
Queen of this dear land
for knights to God and country bound
and all who hear my voice
I sing the praises of God.
