Glockenspiel München Marienplatz HD - Munich carillon HD
Glockenspiel München 17. März 2013
Etwa auf Höhe des Rathausdaches befindet sich das größte Glockenspiel Deutschlands. Im Spielwerkserker werden zwei Ereignisse aus der Münchner Stadtgeschichte dargestellt: Hauptthema ist die im Februar 1568 gefeierte Hochzeit von Herzog Wilhelm V. mit Renate von Lothringen, anlässlich der ein Ritterturnier auf dem Marienplatz stattfand. Beim Wettkampf triumphierte der bayerische Ritter über seinen lothringischen Gegner. Neben dem Fürstenpaar und seinem Hofmarschall gehören insgesamt 16 Figuren zu dieser Szene. In der unteren Etage tanzen die Schäffler; die Fassmacher sollen sich nach einer schweren Pestepidemie als Erste wieder auf die Straßen gewagt und mit ihrem Tanz die Bevölkerung erheitert haben. Der Tanz der Münchner Schäffler findet seither alle sieben Jahre statt. (Quelle: muenchen.de)
The town hall's tower harbors the world famous carillon, which has existed since 1908. The figures of the carillon show parts of Munich's history. A joust is displayed in the upper part which was arranged for the marriage of duke Wilhelm V. and Renata of Lothringen.
The lower part of the carillon shows a famous dance of Munich, the Schäfflertanz. It was arranged at the time of the plague (1515-1517) and has since been traditionally performed every 7th year in Munich. Reference: Munich Tourist Office
