This bell is in an area called the Serra Memorial Circle to recognize those who helped with restoration of the Mission bells and seismic retrofit and restoration of the basilica.
A plaque on the wall behind the bell refers to it as the Ave Maria bell and indicates that it was cast in Mexico City in 1807 and installed here in 1870.
