St. Urban Tower

The Urban Tower (Slovak: Urbanova veža) in Košice, Slovakia is a renaissance prismatic campanile with a pyramidal roof.

The bell was cast in a mould by the bell-founder Franciscus Illenfeld of Olomouc in 1557.

[2] In 1775 the pyramidal roof was constructed with a Baroque-style onion dome with an iron double cross.

The renovated bell was located in the front of the tower and a copy of the bell (made by employees of VSŽ Steel Works Košice in 1996) was installed in the campanile.

The East Slovak Museum set up an exhibition of foundry work in the tower after the reconstruction in 1977.
