Bell #9801 is a memorial bell for Prague cast in 2022 in the Grassmayr Bell Foundry. With its weight of 9,801 kg (21,608 lb), it is intended to refer to the 9,801 bells stolen by Nazi Germany during the Second World War in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia for the purposes of the arms industry. The #9801 bell will be placed on Rohanský ostrov, the place where the bells were taken from the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia.[1][2][3]
