Kirk in the Hills
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kirk in the Hills is a Presbyterian church located in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan that includes the Tower of the Apostles. The tower, which houses the world's largest carillon in the number of bells contained, was installed in 1960. The 77-bells range from a 6'10" 6-short ton bourdon to the smallest at 6" 14-pounds. The church itself is modeled after Scotland's Melrose Abbey. Set on 40 acres of beautifully landscaped lakeside grounds, Kirk in the Hills constitutes one of the finest examples of gothic architecture in Southeastern Michigan.
