Glockengießerei Grassmayr - "Glockenmuseum"

Cool bell foundry. We got into Innsbruck a little later than expected, but we had about 45 mins to check it out. Love the displays and movie, they have cast bells and other items for sale as well in a nice gift shop. We wish we had a little more time to spend and that we had arrived during shop hours to see the actual work. There are display bells and other items outside and you can ring many of the bells on display.

A real fun museum where you can touch everything and try all. Recommanded for children. Just be ready for a lot of bells noise....

It's an archaic place showing very old techniques and plants and ways on how to make a beautiful bell which is to sound well and look impressive for hundreds of years! They have what hardly anybody has: regular customers for hundreds of years 😊. Next to the workshop they show a very interesting exhibition including a beautiful video about how they make bells. Impressive and definitely worth a visit!

Very cool opportunity to see how bells are made with family that's been doing it for over 400 years.

Amazing experience. It's a small museum about bells. They have an old foundry that serves as an exhibit, but they also let you peek into the new foundry where even today they make new bells. Best part was that you could try out many of them. So it was not only visual, but also audio experience. There is also a shop where you can buy your own bell as a souvenir.

We had so much fun at the Bell Museum! It was included with our Innsbruck cards but we would have paid full price for the experience too. All the different ways to experience the sound of bells - through water, through your feet, around your head - and the sound rooms and harmony rooms were transformative. We learned so much and could have stayed there all day enjoying the bells!

Functional church bell foundry. The exhibition gives a nice explanation about church bells, how they are made and their history. Was very interesting to see how they are made in person. When I was there, 10 bells were poured. Nice shop with a collection of their products. Before the bells were poured, a priest said a blessing. Would have liked to know in advance. Though church bells are obviously associated with religion, the exhibition is quite neutral in tone.

Visited using the Innsbruck card. Small but chock full of informative exhibits and hands-on experiences. It was quite quiet when I visited, so I could take my time with each exhibit and listen to all the bell sounds clearly. Thumbs up to the friendly staff including someone in the forge who clarified that it is okay to enter the working forge area, which was a unique experience. Highly recommended especially if you have the Innsbruck card.
