Aanslaan Gentse Triomfante (in de volksmond Klokke Roeland)
De klok die hier aangeslagen wordt, is de Grote Triomfante van de stad Gent, gegoten in 1660 door Pieter Hemony. Ze moest dienen als luidklok en als uitbreiding van de beiaard die hij het jaar ervoor gegoten had en waarvoor de historische 14de eeuwse stormklok Roeland omgesmolten werd. In de 19de eeuw, met de romantiek kreeg deze Triomfante de rol van opvolger van Roeland toebedeeld, en werd in de volksmond eveneens Klokke Roeland genoemd, soms wel Roeland 2 om verwarring te vermijden. Het belang van deze klok voor de Gentenaars is zo groot, dat het Gentse volkslied, het Boven Gent rijst deze klok bezingt.
De klok barstte echter in 1914 en was sedertdien stom. In 1948 werd ze maar op het nippertje van de smeltkroes gered, nadat een sponsor gevonden werd om een volledig nieuwe stormklok (die deze keer van meet af aan de naam Roeland kreeg, om verwarring te vermijden Roeland 3 genoemd) te laten gieten, zonder het brons van haar voorganger te moeten gebruiken. Nadat de Triomfante meer dan 50 jaar op een sokkel op het Braunplein gestaan had, werd ze in 2003 gelast. Pas dit jaar kreeg ze weer een plaatsje in Gent. Het aanslaan van de klok is niet ideaal, maar de ontroering is groot voor de Gentenaars die deze klok, die zoveel symboliek voor de stad inhoudt, na bijna 100 jaar stilzwijgen, voor het eerst weer kunnen horen.
De klok is voorlopig geplaatst boven een liftkoker naast de sacristie van de Sint-Niklaaskerk, zodat de Gentenaars haar klank weer kunnen horen. Op termijn moet ze echter terug in het belfort gehangen worden, waar ze haar taak als beiaardklok opnieuw zal kunnen vervullen. Er zijn echter geen plannen (helaas) om deze klok haar allereerste historische functie als luidklok opnieuw te geven.
Het aanslaan van de klok gebeurde ter gelegenheid van de officiële opening van de nieuwe Stadshal op het Emile Braunplein, op 1 september 2012 om 20h30 door Joris Rasemont.
Dank aan Joris Rasemont voor de bemiddeling om de klank- en video-opname te mogen maken.
This bell is the historic successor of the 14th-century storm bell Roeland, and was cast in 1660. The importance of this bell is so large for Ghent that it is the subject of the anthem of the city. The bell cracked in 1914, and it just escaped being melted to cast its successor in 1948. In 2003 it was repaired and in 2012 it was hung on the Emile Braun Square in the city centre. The fixed suspension is far from ideal, but for the inhabitants of Ghent it is very emotional to hear again this bell, that means so much for the city, after having been silent for almost 100 years. Later, this bell should go back to the belfry to take back one of its historic tasks as carillon bell.
Cette cloche est le successeur de la cloche de Gand du 14ème siècle, Roeland, et a été coulée en 1660. Pour la ville de Gand cette cloche est si importante qu'elle est le sujet de l'hymne de la ville. La cloche s'est felée en 1914, et n'a que tout juste été sauvée de la fonte en 1948 pour produire son successeur. En 2003 elle a été soudée et en 2012 elle a été suspendue sur le Square Emile Braun au centre ville. La suspension fixe est loin d'être idéale, mais l'émotion est grande pour les Gantois, qui peuvent maintenant de nouveau entendre cette cloche qui représente tant pour la ville, et qui est restée muette pendant près de 100 ans. Plus tard elle devrait reprendre sa place dans le beffroi et reprendre une de ces tâches originales comme cloche du carillon.

BEGIJNHOF TURNHOUT, BELGIË - 13TH CENTURY BEGUINAGE IN BELGIUM
Historic Catholic beguinage (begijnhof) located in Turnhout, Belgium. The unique and well preserved Belgian beguinage was build in the early 13 th century and is located right in the middle of the city centre. Untill recently the houses and other buildings were used by traditional beguines, who inhabited the age old beguinage for centuries. Furthermore the historical complex constists of a gatehouse, entrance building, a church, a chapel, a Lourdes grotto, many old trees, a wonderful kitchen garden and a large number of religious sculptures and statues. In 1998 the Flemish beguinage was officially recognized by Unesco as a cultural world heritage site.
Het begijnhof van Turnhout is een van de Vlaamse begijnhoven die in 1998 opgenomen werden op de werelderfgoedlijst. Turnhout is gelegen in het noorden de van oorsprong Katholieke Vlaamse provincie Antwerpen. Van het begijnhof van Turnhout is geen precieze stichtingsdatum bekend, maar waarschijnlijk werd ze in de 13e eeuw opgericht. Het vroeg classicistische poortgebouw en het langwerpig plein typeren dit begijnhof. Er is een goed bewaarde barok kerk, infirmerie en huizen uit de 16e en 17e eeuw. De laatste begijn, groot juffrouw Anna De Boer, overleed in 2002. Er is ook een museum waar men meer over de begijnencultuur te weten kan komen.
