Until next April 28, the day on which the Spring Festival ends, the song to Murcia will sound on the clock chime of Murcia City Hall, every day at 12:05.

It is necessary to remember the bell of the clock of the City council has its origin in 1940. With a weight of 80 kilos, in 2006 they stopped using the hammers that strike the bell, after the installation of a digital musical carillon.

Last December, the watchmaker José Antonio Sánchez, from the Murcian company Tradition in Clocks and Bells, has recovered the old hammers, replacing the springs and improving their sonority to offer in the past Christmas the Bells in La Glorieta.
