The Bell Tower Experience Tour

The towering glass spire of the Bell Tower is located where Perth meets the Swan River in vibrant Barrack Square and is a touchstone for Australian and international tourists. 

The Bell Tower is one of the largest musical instruments in the world and was custom built to house the historically significant bells (made in 1725) of the Saint Martin in the Fields church, the parish church of Buckingham Palace in Trafalgar Square, London.

Explore the exhibits and
displays that tell the story of the bells and the art of bell ringing. Climb to
the observation deck to take in stunning panoramic views of Perth and the Swan
River. Watch skilled bell ringers in action (Thursday and Sunday) with live demonstrations. With something for all ages,
a visit to The Bell Tower Perth is an unforgettable experience.
