*Links:

The Dutch Wikipedia article about the church has a photo of it but does not mention any bells.

The Dutch Reliwiki page about this church mentions two church bells (one ancient, one modern) but not these bells.  There are several photos.  The map is quite wrong.

The Wikimedia category for this building has many photos of it.

The Protestant Association of Sassenheim has a page about the church, with a photo of it.  There is mention of a bell museum within the tower, but no details are given.

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