The old bells at the top of the belfry look like they have been hanging there for hundreds of years. One immediately imagines the quiet echo that would come from them.
Staré zvony nahoře ve zvonici vypadají, jako by tam visely už stovky let. Člověk si hned představí tu tichou ozvěnu, která by z nich šla.

Teodora Ionescu Yes, the bells have been hanging there since the 16th century, when they were cast by a local craftsman in Kutná Hora. They still look solid.
Ilie Radu Yes, bells from the 16th century still look solid. Teodora is right, the master from Kutná Hora did a good job.
Stefan Lukić Teodora and Ilie are right, those bells from the 16th century are still strong. It's nice that they preserved them.
Георги Иванов These bells are from the 16th century, and the tower itself looks even older, the stone is quite roughly hewn, typical of Gothic buildings of that time.
Pierre Girard I would love to see these bells up close one day. The rough stone tower looks really ancient.
Андрій Бойко It is interesting that those bells from the 16th century are still so strong. Is the church open for visitors now? And when are services held there?
Bogdan Rusu Yes, 16th century bells hold up well. The church is dedicated to St. Prokop and services are held there on Sunday mornings.
إلياس نصار The tower itself appears to be older than Zenan. The rough stone and square shape suggest a construction of at least the fourteenth century.
Gabriela Dumitrescu Yes, bells from the 16th century still look good. Is the church open for visitors on weekdays or only on Sundays?
Tomáš Baláž Those bells from the 16th century look really well preserved. Is St. Prokop's church open for visitors during the week, or only on Sundays before the service?
Γιώργος Δημητρίου Too bad no one writes exactly when they last struck.
Miloš Obradović Yes, the bells from the 16th century are still in good condition. Is the church of St. Does Prokopa also open on weekdays for visitors or only on the week before the service?
Наталья Беляева Yes, the calls look strong. Can you visit the Church of St. Prokop on weekdays or only before Sunday service?
Софья Семёнова The stonework at the bottom of the tower is completely rough, without any decoration, typical of early Gothic. It can be seen that the foundation was laid back in the fourteenth century, and only then was built on.
Katherine Brown The bells from the 16th century still look solid enough to ring for St. Procopius on a Sunday morning. I wonder if they ever get used for weekday services too.
Stephen King Those 16th-century bells still look heavy.
Михаил Виноградов Do they call at least sometimes?
