On July 8, 1776, the Liberty Bell rang from the tower of the Pennsylvania State House (now known as Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, calling citizens to hear the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence. The tolling of the Liberty Bell symbolized freedom and marked the birth of a new nation, resonating as a powerful reminder of the struggle for independence from British rule. This event is central to American historical identity and commemorates the ideals of liberty and justice.
