Description

BellsMod

Realistic church bells for Minecraft 1.16.5 (Forge)

BellsMod brings realistic church bells, animated tower clocks and decorative church blocks into Minecraft. Every bell features its own model, sound and ringing behavior, allowing you to build authentic churches, chapels, cathedrals and bell towers.

Features

12 Realistic Church Bells

Each bell has:

  • Unique size and appearance
  • Individual sound
  • Realistic swinging animation
  • Linear motor system
  • Falling or Flying Clapper mechanism

Every bell can be tested by:

  • Right-clicking it with a Stick
  • Shooting it with a Bow or Crossbow

For full ringing, every bell has its own dedicated Bell Controller.

 

Bell Support Structures

Bells require realistic support structures before they can be placed.

Available supports:

  • Steel Bell Support
  • Wooden Bell Support
  • Decorative Wooden Brace

The Holy Spirit Bell (1200 kg) is the only exception and can be placed directly on any solid block.

 

Bell Controllers

Each bell has its own controller.

Using the controller starts a complete ringing sequence lasting approximately 1 minute and 15 seconds.

After ringing, the bell continues swinging naturally until it completely stops.

 

Automatic Bell Ringing

The Central Bell Controller allows you to automate bell ringing.

Create unlimited schedules with:

  • Custom schedule names
  • Exact in-game time
  • Any combination of bells
  • Day selection (Monday–Sunday)

Schedules can be:

  • Enabled
  • Disabled
  • Edited
  • Deleted

Perfect for Angelus, hourly ringing or custom church traditions.

 

Clock Chime

The Clock Chime is an automatic bronze chime that strikes every Minecraft hour.

It automatically rings according to the current in-game time, for example:

  • 03:00 → 3 strikes
  • 08:00 → 8 strikes
  • 12:00 → 12 strikes

No setup required.

 

Animated Tower Clock

The Tower Clock is fully animated.

Its hour and minute hands automatically move according to Minecraft time, making it perfect for:

  • Churches
  • Cathedrals
  • Town halls
  • Clock towers
  • Historical buildings

Simply place it and it starts working immediately.

 

Church Decoration Blocks

BellsMod also includes decorative church furniture such as:

  • Statue of Jesus
  • Statue of Virgin Marry
  • Wooden Cross
  • Altar Table
  • Ambo
  • Nativity Scene
  • Holy Grave
  • Advent Wreath
  • Jesus Stained Glass
  • Shutters
  • Bench

These blocks are decorative and designed to make churches and religious buildings look much more authentic.
