The Carillon of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame

Rouen, France

The PACCARD Foundry has a long history with the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Rouen beginning in 1914, when they first cast the 10-ton Joan of Arc Bourdon. The latest refurbishment was undertaken in 2014, when the Foundry was again chosen to restore and extend the cathedral’s carillon. This architectural jewel is the second-largest carillon in France, behind that of Chambéry.
