The Bell of Peace and Friendship Among Nations was erected in 1986, so relatively late in comparison to many of the park’s other monuments. The bell itself weighs 850 kg and hangs 10m above the ground. Because it's a Bell of Peace visitors will note that it is ornamented with impressions of doves. Nowadays the bell is rung to celebrate holidays and anniversaries such as Liberation Day (February 23) when the Germans capitulated at the fort during World War II. Rumor has it the bell can be heard from 10km away.
