The Carillon is located along the Riverwalk near Rotary Hill in the heart of Naperville, IL Details.
Visitors to the Tower will see an awe-inspiring view of the area when they reach the observation deck, 14 stories up. Read all about it.
Moser Tower and Millennium Carillon was begun in 1998 as a labor of love by a small group of Naperville families, and in a short time the vision spread to many, who donated the funds to make the vision a reality.
In the tradition of Centennial Beach and the Riverwalk, the Millennium Carillon is a gift from the people of our community for all future generations to enjoy.
Those who donated funds to make our carillon possible also left messages about themselves, their life in Naperville, and their support of the carillon project. You can read their messages in this cyberspace time capsule. A special section of the web site, Thanks To Public Donations displays the lists of donors. You can read the messages of those that left messages by clicking on any names that are blue and underlined.
