Horse Harness Bells

The bells hung on horse equipment, making sounds during movement, helping to control the animal. They also served as decoration. This type of artifact also reflects trade and cultural ties with neighboring cultures of that time. The exhibits are of great historical and cultural significance, illuminating the daily life of the Middle Ages.
