"The north tower (which holds the bells) was taller than its south counterpart until the 15th century, when the south tower was heightened to match. After a fire in 1763, the spires and tops of the Grossmünster's towers were destroyed. They were reconstructed with the Gothic-style sections that can be seen today."
