The Italian Wikipedia article about the church mentions these bells.  There are several photos of the building (mostly in the Wikimedia Commons category) but only one shows a bit of the tower, and it was taken before these bells were installed.  However, Google StreetView does show the bells in a view from the south.

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