In what city is the Liberty Bell located?

The Liberty Bell is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The bell is displayed at the Liberty Bell Center in Independence National Historical Park, near Independence Hall. Philadelphia was the meeting place of the Second Continental Congress and the city where the Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776, making it a fitting home for this famous symbol.

The bell was cast in London in 1751 for the Pennsylvania State House, now known as Independence Hall. It was recast in Philadelphia after cracking during testing. The famous crack developed later and was widened during repairs; the bell has not been rung since the 19th century.

Many people associate the bell with the ringing said to have announced independence on July 4, 1776, but historians have found no contemporary evidence that it was rung that day. Its inscription, “Proclaim LIBERTY Throughout all the Land Unto all the Inhabitants Thereof,” comes from Leviticus 25:10.
