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:
