Tsitouras tuned bells
Bell sizes and weights
Our 37 standard tuned bells, from 5 kg and 18 cm up to 4,250 kg and 192 cm in diameter. Measure your own bell and see roughly how much it weighs.
Tool
How much does my bell weigh?
Enter the diameter of the bell’s mouth in centimetres.
With a tape measure, measure the outside diameter at the bottom lip of the bell, from edge to edge, passing through the centre.
Estimated weight
An indicative estimate for bells with a profile like ours. Old bells or bells from other foundries may differ — send us a photo for an accurate estimate.

Guidance
What size does a bell tower need?
There is no single rule for every church. A small chapel is usually well served by bells of a few dozen kilos, while a town parish church or a monastery often needs a set of larger bells to be heard from far away.
The final choice depends on the openings and strength of the bell tower, on the bells already there and on how they will be rung. Send us photos and dimensions or, in Greece, ask for a visit — the proposal is free of charge.
