DE: Am südlichen (wie auch am nördlichen) Eingang des Kölner Friedhofes Melaten befindet sich eine etwa zwanzig cm große Glocke in einem Metallrahmen an der Wand in etwa 2,5m Höhe. Ein Glockenseil am Klöppel erlaubt dem Friedhofspersonal eine knappe halbe Stunde vor Schließung des Friedhofes die Glocke zu läuten und fordert die Besucher somit zum Verlassen des Friedhofes auf.

EN: At the southern (as well as at the northern) entrance of the Melaten cemetery in Cologne there is a bell about twenty cm in size in a metal frame on the wall at a height of about 2.5 m. A bell rope on the clapper allows the cemetery staff to ring the bell about half an hour before the cemetery closes and thus prompts visitors to leave the cemetery.
