                  <text>This Collection illustrates how medievalism has always existed â€˜in plain viewâ€™ in Australian public life, as a conspicuous cultural memory ghosting Australiaâ€™s modernity. It focuses on discourses about, debates over, and changing interpretations of i) Australiaâ€™s medievalist political and religious institutions and rituals, ii) its architecture, and iii) its civic environment. In this Collection are items relating to all three of these key areas. Firstly, you will find items that point to the medieval influences and inflections that still permeate and influence our political, legal and religious institutions and traditions. Secondly, you will find numerous examples of neo-gothic and neo-romanesque architecture, and some cases where architectural features are known to have been modelled on specific medieval buildings. Thirdly, you will find items relating to the ways in which medievalism is incorporated into our civic environments and expressed through statues, monuments and war memorials.</text>

                <text>The Bell Tower, on the Swan River in Perth, houses the Swan Bells, including twelve medieval bells formally from the church of St Martin-in-the-Fields in Trafalgar Square, London. The bells are known to have existed in the fourteenth century and were recast in the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. They were often rung to celebrate important events, including the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588, the return of Captain James Cook from his voyage of discovery (which included the east coast of Australia) in 1771, and the coronation of every British Monarch since George II in 1727. The bells are the only set of royal bells known to have left England. They were presented to the State of Western Australia in 1988 as a gift to mark the Australian bicentenary, and The Bell Tower was built to house them and six additional bells. The Bell Tower opened in 2000 and is a rare example of a modern Australian building housing medieval artefacts that are still in use.  </text>
