NOTE: This list is not complete - many instruments remain to be added for France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.
NOTE: Cities which have (or had) a carillon during a historical period when they were part of, or were occupied by, a different country may be cross-referenced by the name which they bore in the language of that country. For the same reason, place names are sometimes given in alternate languages. Such references enable the reader to connect historical references with present circumstances, and are not intended to make any political statement regarding past or present facts.
