This Bell Tower stands tall on the UNC Campus there in Chapel Hill, NC. Saturday, Oct 5, was UNC Home Coming . Students present and pass gathered to celebrate 🍾 the occasion. There were plenty of reunion moments among those in attendance, some new and some old. Newborns were introduced, and memories were shared of those that had passed into the arms of the Lord. It's truly a happy place where many careers were started, and leaders were born. Lord, we are grateful for what you have done, and we pray that those who follow after us will continue to lift you up in all ways as you direct their path. Stand Strong for all that read this message and know you can make it. Be blessed, be humbled, be caring, be loved 😍 ❤️! Our hearts and prayers continue for members of our community who are struggling to recover from the Helena Storm. Sending our love to all. God bless, be cool, and pass this message on. Ciao, my friends 😎!

Well maintained spot for photo op. My kid loves bell towers. This one is not a disappointment. It's surrounded by a beautiful lawn. There are some interesting graffiti AND some historic plaques as well. Its a great photo spot for UNC people. Believe me. I happened to be there on graduation weekend.

If you are looking for a classic collegiate bell tower, this place has it all. A brick tower, columns, clocks on each side, and a stylish bell facility that rings out on the quarter hour. Around the tower are manicured lawn areas that are suited to a nice rest or picnic. Don't miss the chance to browse the historic plaques around the structure. And - during the open times - climb the tower for a view of the campus. A UNC...
