Vanden Geyhn et Van Aerschodt

The family Vanden Geyhn founded bells and carrillons around Europe. The foundry was originally established in Mechelen. The bells they made are considered as being the best sounding of their times. The family Van Aerschodt were, via marital unions, their heirs, and went on continuing the heritage. Established in Leuven, Belgium, they continued with the founding of bells.
