Non-traditional carillons in Europe:
index by city name

NOTE:   Great Britain and Ireland are separately indexed, as are Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands. and Scandinavia (Nordic countries and Danish dependencies).

NOTE:   Cities which have (or had) a carillon during a historical period when they were part of, or were occupied by, a different country may be cross-referenced by the name which they bore in the language of that country.  For the same reason, place names are sometimes given in alternate languages.  Such references enable the reader to connect historical references with present circumstances, and are not intended to express any political opinion regarding past or present facts.

NOTE: Installations which originally had a traditional keyboard are marked "trad*".
