Neck Bells

Part of the collection: Vehicles and harnesses

Popularization note

Neck Bells, 19th/20th century The acquisitions of the Łańcut Castle Museum presented primarily in the Gala Harness Room in the Castle Stables feature harness sets and parts purchased by the Museum. An interesting collection of harnesses from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century was created, used primarily in court carriages. The Museum also holds an interesting collection of bells for horse teams. Among bells for winter rides in the collection of the Castle Museum, two types can be distinguished: backstrap bells attached to the backstrap of the harness, or neck bells. The described bells are attached to a leather neck belt, lined with flat quilted cushion and fastened with a buckle. There are eleven bells on the strap ˗ the central one is chalice-shaped and there are five round bells on each side, rhythmically assembled from the largest to the smallest one.
