Sights

The Bell and Carillon Museum was housed in a former stagecoach inn, from 1992 to 2013. The museum showed the history of the foundry, manufacturing, professional secrets and the work of the bell-founders. In addition, there was a unique set of weather-vanes and clocks.

gollark: Although HTTP tries its best to alienate you from the people you interact with via the stateless request/response model, at least with unencrypted HTTP I am still aware that I am interacting with another server. TLS and so on seek to undermine this further, by forcing you to treat everyone as a faceless certificate surrounded by attackers trying to eavesdrop at all times. It thus depersonalizes and alienates you from the people you are interacting with even further.
