I went :30 before it closed, no line, and hardly anyone was there. Free and no reservation required. The museum was interesting and the bell is right inside. Besides the historic relevance, the library bell is really beautiful in person. Independence Hall is across the street. The grounds surrounding the area has a little park, benches, walking paths, plaques with more historical information.

Fun to see the Liberty Bell we have heard about since grade school. Viewing area is nice and you can get very close to the bell! I went 30 min prior to closing and walked right in. No lines!

Free to visit and no need to book a slot in January; I imagine it gets extremely busy in high season. We only had a short 5 minute line to go through security. Lots of information and photos can be seen before you reach the Bell at the end of the room. We were lucky to visit on a quiet Saturday so got to see it all without crowds of people so we could get right up to the Bell and see it clearly. I would highly recommend going to see if from inside the building instead of from the outside but I'd plan ahead during busy periods as I imagine the security line can get pretty long!

Always wanted to visit the liberty bell sadly enough since i seen the move National Treasure. Got to see it thankfully and although a short visit due to time constraints with traffic getting there and the closing times I really enjoyed it. Definitely worth visiting.

Worth the stop! We went and had practically no line at all in the late afternoon. Thai is a free exhibit but you do have to go through security. There’s plenty of info to take in or you can just go straight back to the bell, take your pics and go.

Must see piece of history. No ticket needed and our line moved quickly. It being a National park you will go through security check. We spent as much time as we needed taking pictures and reading the exhibit information.

What an amazing experience to see the bell up close and personal. We happened to come at a time when the queue was not long. Got our backpacks scanned through security and went in. I enjoyed reading the different displays about the significance of the bell before getting to see it for my self. What a spectacular icon and reminder of all it stands for.

This museum is a great way to see the famous Liberty Bell and learn about its history in relationship to American history. Most of the museum covers how the Bell was manufactured and how it has been used to inspire American patriotism in times of crisis over the years. At the far end of the Center is the actual (cracked) bell, which you can photograph. The helpful National Park Service can answer any questions you have about the Bell. A good choice for a quick visit as you walk between museums on Independence Mall.

The museum aspect of the venue was less than I expected but the liberty bell is amazing! The line on the day we visited only took about 15-20 minutes to get through security. The we were finished with pictures by the liberty bell in 10 minutes.

We visited the Liberty Bell Center shortly after our tour of Independence Hall. The facility is really nice with a modern and spacious design, showcasing the original Liberty Bell in a big space with a beautiful backdrop featuring glass, gardens outside, and Independence Hall. I would have liked to get a better picture of Independence Hall from there but there were blinds partway down the tall window. Historical information from colonial times line the walls as you walk in toward the bell. There is a security check with no large bags, no weapons, a metal detector, and all bags are subject to inspection. There were a lot of people there, but the self-guided tour didn’t take a very long time. This was well-worth our time and something I’ve looked forward to seeing for a very long time. The site was free of charge.
