Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Four steel church bells, removed from St. Michael Church in Kirchberg, to be replaced by bronze bells.
Comment Why should the old bells that are no longer there, be considered valuable to Commons rather than the new ones? Why are the bells notable rather than the exterior of the church itself which is the linked category? --GRDN711 (talk) 01:17, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment That's part of the history of that church. The old bells are at least as important as the new ones, and it was a rare occasion to have the chance to take a picture of them. These bells were cast of iron in 1949, because after the war no precious metal was available. The original medieval bronze bells had been taken away by the Nazis in 1942. In general, the history of bells is an important aspect of the history of every church, this one, by the way, is listed as a cultural heritage monument. --Palauenc05 (talk) 08:35, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
