The Kaasbel looks special and it is. The Cheese Bell was placed in 1925 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Woerden Cheese Market. It is not just a bell, no, the Cheese Bell really has a function. The Cheese Bell indicated how much cheese had been brought in and its price. What is also nice to know is that the details of the cheese market in Bodegraven were noted on the cheese bell. Woerden and Bodegraven were each other's biggest competitors and thereby also the leaders in the cheese markets. This Cheese Bell should become part of your photo collection!
