The German Wikipedia article about this military garrison mentions the bells, but it is not clear whether they survived.  The associated Wikimedia Commons category has numerous photos that include a building which was the likely location of these bells.

Where this work lies in the sequence of output of the Schilling bellfoundry, in this region and in the world.
