Muff Church Tower Technology
Take a guided tour to gain insight into this fascinating craft and see, among other things, how bell clappers are shaped using traditional blacksmithing techniques—a process that is essential for a bell’s soft tone and long life. In addition, Muff AG also manufactures the supporting structures for the bells—the bell frames—and is well-versed in the mechanics of tower clocks and the restoration of historic church tower technology. The expertise of this Triengen-based family business also encompasses the entire field of church automation: from acoustics and bell-ringing controls to lighting and climate control.
A highlight for visitors is the company’s own, richly stocked museum, featuring clappers up to 400 years old (including the second-largest in Switzerland, weighing 325 kg), over 80 mechanical tower clocks dating from the 16th to the 20th centuries, and many other exhibits.
