This past Thursday, a commercial diver named Gene Ritter brought a nearly 100-year-old brass bell weighing about 500 pounds to the surface at Coney Island. The bell helped ring in the arrival and departure of visitors to Dreamland during the park’s run and in 1911 a devastating fire destroyed the park and sent the entire iron pier (and the bell) to the ocean floor.

ABC News has video of the bell being raised from the ocean floor.

And for this weekend only, the bell will be on display at the Coney Island History Project Center near the Cyclone rollercoaster. The admission is free so there really isn’t a good reason to go if you’re not doing anything else.
