The cowbells and the St. Bernard now makes sense with your Swiss background. When we had cows we just used neck chains with a tag instead of putting it in their ear so you could hear the chains jingling. That’s the sound you didn’t want to hear in the middle of the night as a Buncha neck chains jingling met the cows are out.

Been to Switzerland several times and this sound is part of the land. My parents had 3 big cow bells hanging in the living room for decoration. Apart from keeping your heritage alive, they also serve a purpose like you said. Really nice.

I love that sound. Falling asleep on a warm summer night listening to that distant music was heavenly. Thank you for the video. Stay safe and God bless.

Hello that's cool. Didnt they originally have bells on there cattle to locate them before they had fence lines. That's what I was learned. On the video of the cow yes you can hear the difference on the sound of her bell as to what she was doing. I never thought of that till you talked about. Awesome video thankyou. Hope to meet yous one day. Have a great day.

It is great to keep family traditions alive. They are lovely to listen to on summer evenings. Especially from a distance. They put the "pastoral" into the pasture.

Here in Aus we have a cow bell that has been made since the mid 1800’s called a “Condamine Bell”. It is very similar to some of yours, it’s made of two folded sections of sheet metal riveted together with the strap on top of course. Often when drovers would shift large mobs of cattle overland they would have a lead cow or bullock with a bell for the mob to follow. Regards from Down Under.
