THE CORRECT ANSWER: Campanist

The campanist is a craftsman specialized in the installation, restoration and maintenance of the bell heritage (bells and their accessories). His expertise is multidisciplinary: he must master the mechanics for the swing systems, electrification for the automation of the bells, and even the framework to check the belfry which supports tons of bronze. He often works on historic monuments to repair monumental clock mechanisms or tune complex chimes. Beyond the technical aspect, the campanist ensures the acoustic preservation of a place; he must ensure that the ringing respects local traditions and the structure of the building.This profession of passion requires freedom from heights, great autonomy and a deep respect for history. Working between heaven and earth, the campanist ensures the sustainability of the voice of our cities and villages throughout the centuries.
