Liberty Bell Museum, Historical museum in Allentown, Pennsylvania, United States.
The Liberty Bell Museum occupied the basement of Zion's United Church of Christ, featuring exhibits about American independence and Pennsylvania history.
From September 1777 to June 1778, the original Liberty Bell remained hidden under the church floorboards to protect it from British forces.
The museum displayed educational exhibits about freedom, independence, and local heritage, including a complete replica of the Liberty Bell.
The museum closed permanently in April 2023, with its collection transferred to the Lehigh County Historical Society for preservation.
The museum housed a 1769 bell that local records indicate rang during the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence.
