Campanology is the study of bells. It encompasses the physical realities of bells how they are cast, tuned and sounded as well as the various methods devised to perform bell-ringing. It is common to collect together a set of tuned bells and treat the whole as one musical instrument. Such collections such as a Flemish carillon, a Russian zvon, or a British "ring of bells" used for change ringing have their own practices and challenges; and campanology is likewise the study of perfecting such instruments, composing music for them, and performing it.

It is not usually applied to assemblages of smaller bells, such as a glockenspiel, a collection of tubular bells, or an Indonesian gamelan.
