AB The article deals with the bell tower by the parish church consecrated to Sts Simon and Jude in the village of Vitice, Central Bohemia. The ground floor is made of stone, while the bell-chair is made of wood. Based on the dendrochronological analysis, the tower was erected in the late 1660s. Attention focuses primarily on the construction of the second floor walls and the roof frame. The medieval door, used secondarily for the ground floor entrance, deserves closer inspection as well. The bell in the tower dates back to 1560.
