In his foundry with smoke-blackened walls, bellfounder Alois Huguenin uses an enormous ladle to pour molten bronze at 1,250 degrees Celsius (2,282 degrees Fahrenheit) into a metal frame. For three generations, the century-old traditional foundry in La Chaux-de-Fonds in northwestern Switzerland -- the cradle of the country's famous watchmaking industry -- has been crafting the bells used at the Olympic Games. “Knowing that we are participating in our small way in the great celebration of the Olympic Games is a source of pride,” explains Huguenin.
