The Liberty Bell Memorial Museum represents over 300 years of United States history and inspires pride in America's achievements and cultural heritage. Its focus is a full-size replica of the original Liberty Bell. Cast by none other than the Whitechapel Foundry in London, England - the makers of the original bell - this authentic recreation is believed to be one of only 25 known to exist in the world. Visitors can tap the Bell with a rubber mallet and hear the ring of freedom! Other features include artifacts and memorabilia from all American wars, model warships and airplanes, weapons, clothing, a gallery of U.S. flags, full-size photographic reproductions of important documents, local history and much more. The museum's large and evolving inventory is continuously rotated, so you may visit often.
