Luby-Betmont

Luby-Betmont is a village and commune in the Hautes-Pyrénées "département" of south-eastern France.

The village church has the curious feature of chiming the hours twice. The reason for this is uncertain, although it may have been to allow workers in the fields a second chance to confirm the hour in order to be sure when to return to the farms for meals. The exceptions to the double chiming are at 7am and noon, when a more complex bell ringing takes place prior to the masses.
