The Liberty Bell Center
Part of the U.S. National Park Service and Independence National Park, the Liberty Bell’s home on Independence Mall looms as powerful and dramatic as the bell itself.
Throughout the expansive, light-filled center, larger-than-life historic documents and graphic images explore the facts and the myths surrounding the bell.
The Liberty Bell shines as one of the world’s most recognizable symbols of freedom.
At the Liberty Bell Center, visitors get an up-close-and-personal experience, where they can see a 360-degree view of the iconic relic.
In quiet alcoves, a short History Channel film, available in nine languages, traces how abolitionists, suffragists and other groups adopted the bell as its symbol of freedom.
