The Liberty Bell Center features more than 80 exhibits, including an outdoor area commemorating the site of what was once 190 High Street, the presidential residence used by George Washington and John Adams when Philadelphia was the nation's capital. The Liberty Bell is housed in a chamber at the end of the center surrounded by windows, with a direct view of Independence Hall.

For details about the Liberty Bell Center exhibits, visit the National Park Service's website at: http://www.nps.gov/inde/liberty-bell-center.htm.
