Which Philadelphia historic park was chosen for America250’s time capsule burial?

Independence National Historical Park was chosen for America250’s time capsule burial.

The park is in Philadelphia, the city where the Declaration of Independence was debated and adopted in 1776. Its historic setting made it a fitting location for a capsule intended to connect the nation’s founding era with its 250th anniversary.

Independence National Historical Park preserves several of the most important sites associated with the American Revolution and the early United States. Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, and other landmarks place the America250 ceremony within a concentrated landscape of national history.

The park’s name is sometimes shortened informally to “Independence Hall,” but those are not the same thing. Independence Hall is one building inside the larger national historical park. The burial site’s correct answer is the full park name.
