The Bells in Notre-Dame de Paris have many names, including:

“Emmanuel”: The largest Bell in the South Tower and weighs 13,271 kilograms and is considered a masterpiece. It was originally named “Jacqueline” and was recast in 1681 at the request of King Louis XIV. It has tolled to mark major events in French history, including the coronations of French Kings, Papal visits, and the end of World War I and World War II;

“Marie”: One of the two “Bourdons” in the South Tower [Editor: A “Bourdon” Bell is the heaviest Bell within a Carillon or Chime. Consequently, it sounds the lowest tone or note];

“Anne-Geneviève”: Named after Sainte Anne, mother of The Virgin Mary, and Sainte Genevieve, Paris’s Patron Saint;

“Gabriel”: One of the main Bells in the Cathedral. 

It is the heaviest Bell and weighs over four tonnes;

“Denis”: One of the main Bells in the Cathedral;

“Marcel”: Named after the ninth Bishop of Paris, 

who reigned in the 5th-Century A.D;

“Étienne”: Named after the old Cathedral that 

once stood where Notre Dame de Paris is now;

“Benoît-Joseph”: Named after Pope Benedict XVI, the 

Pope at the time of Notre Dame’s 850th anniversary in 2013;

“Jean-Marie”: Named after Jean-Marie Lustiger, the 

139th Archbishop of Paris, who served from 1981 – 2005. 

It is the lightest Bell and weighs 800 kilogrammes.

The Bells in Notre-Dame de Paris are regularly recast. 

Many of the main Bells were cast and installed in 2012, 

but were damaged in the 2019 fire.
