Take a walk through Old City to visit the historic Liberty Bell! The Market-Frankford train is an easy choice for transportation to Old City.
The Liberty Bell is one of the nation’s most beloved and historic symbols of our national independence. The bell was cast in 1752, but it became a potent icon of freedom when it was rung on July 4, 1776, when the nation’s founders declared independence from British rule. Today, the Liberty Bell is one of the city’s most celebrated attraction.
The Liberty Bell is a historic landmark that's a must visit for anyone visiting Philadelphia for the first time. The Liberty Bell Center is great for families, groups and explores alike.
MUST SEE... The Liberty Bell Center is located at 526 Market Street. Visitors exit from the south end of the building, near Chestnut Street.
The Liberty Bell, previously called the State House Bell or Old State House Bell, is an iconic symbol of American independence, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Once placed in the steeple of the Pennsylvania State House (now renamed Independence Hall), the bell today is located in the Liberty Bell Center in Independence National Historical Park. The bell was commissioned in 1752 by the Pennsylvania Provincial Assembly from the London firm of Lester and Pack (known subsequently as the Whitechapel Bell Foundry), and was cast with the lettering "Proclaim LIBERTY Throughout all the Land unto all the Inhabitants Thereof", a Biblical reference from the Book of Leviticus (25:10). The bell first cracked when rung after its arrival in Philadelphia, and was twice recast by local workmen John Pass and John Stow, whose last names appear on the bell. In its early years, the bell was used to summon lawmakers to legislative sessions and to alert citizens about public meetings and proclamations.
