Independence Hall


From October 2009

This is Independence Hall, originally the Philadelphia Statehouse. It is where the Declaration of Independence was signed, The Continental Congress met and the Constitution was drafted. Once the government was formed, they moved to an ancillary building in the Statehouse until 1800 when the government was moved to Washington DC.

From October 2009

That is the actual seat where John Hancock and George Washington sat.
