The Liberty Bell: You can still see it in from of the Hall of Independence. Once upon a time it gained iconic importance when abolitionists in their efforts to put an end to slavery throughout America adopted it as a symbol.

After the divisive Civil War, Americans sought a symbol of unity. The flag became one such symbol, and the Liberty Bell another. To help heal the wounds of the war, the Liberty Bell would travel across the country.
