Our friend Judy came back from her trip to France all agog about having seen these bells being manufactured for Notre Dame. The video is in French, but worth the view to see these beauties!
While not precisely what Marty had in mind, when she asked us to link up to her cloche party, I couldn’t resist sharing this post. After all, the word cloche is actually French for “bell” and when you listen to the French video, you will hear the word cloche over and over again as they talk about the new bells for Notre Dame. I hope you enjoy this trip to France and a very interesting story!
I’ll just bet you get chills when you do finally hear those bells ringing!!!!!!
It’s such an interesting story — one doesn’t think about replacing bells.
Oh how fun, I love this. Perfect “cloch” pictures. Thanks tons for joining the party. Hugs, Marty
Marty, I’ve also got a cloche planned for Thursday. I’ve been searching my stash for something to resemble a cloche.
The belles of Notre Dame…the ultimate cloche, indeed! I love Paris! Thanks for the preview and have a glorious trip! Cherry Kay

I loved the video and was thrilled to be able to share it. Thank you, Laura!
So interesting. Somewhere in my reading recently I came across that the french word for bell was cloche. Kind of neat that your post featured that.
I love Paris and Notre Dame was so special when we were there.
Thanks for visiting, Bonnie!
Climbing to the top of Notre Dame and seeing the bells and the gargoyles AND the incredible views from up there was my favorite part of our trip to Paris. I hope you love every minute!
We climbed Sacre Coeur and in Notre Dame the beautiful stained glass panels were being restored. I look forward to seeing both of these beautiful spaces again!
