Swiss Ct W1D 6BY LONDON | |||||||
Descripción | On the Leicester Square facing side of the podium featured a Carillon – a musical instrument made of 27 bells set alongside 11 moving Swiss figures (carved by Fritz Fuchs in 1968). In 1984, the glockenspiel was added as a gift of friendship from Switzerland and Liechtenstein, making the Swiss Centre a popular stop for tourists and Londoners passing between Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square. On the hour, the clock would chime, the bells would ring and the figures would move around the curved wall. In 2007 after the demolition of the Swiss Centre, the Glockenspiel alongside the figures was transferred to the structure that it's in currently. | ||||||
