What stories do those bells tell? That, my friends, is the Carillon of the New Town Hall. This isn’t just any clock. It’s a stage, a storyteller, a piece of Munich’s soul. Every day, at 11 am, noon, and 5 pm, the Carillon bursts to life. High above, 32 figures twirl and spin, enacting two historical tales. On the upper level, you’ll witness the jousting tournament held in 1568 to celebrate the marriage of Duke Wilhelm V to Renata of Lorraine. The lower level depicts the Schäfflertanz, the coopers’ dance. Legend says they danced through the streets to lift the spirits of Munich’s citizens after the devastating plague of 1517. And as the final bell tolls, a golden rooster emerges, flapping its wings and crowing three times. The show is over, but the Carillon’s stories linger in the air.
