Independence Hall is a historic building located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. It is one of the most important symbols of American freedom and democracy, as it was the site where the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution were adopted. The hall was originally constructed as the Pennsylvania State House and was completed in 1753. It served as the meeting place for the Second Continental Congress from 1775 to 1783. This was the body that convened during the American Revolution and eventually declared independence from Great Britain in 1776, marking the birth of the United States. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress approved the Declaration of Independence at Independence Hall, and this day is celebrated annually as Independence Day in the United States. Additionally, Independence Hall was the site where the Constitutional Convention took place in 1787. This gathering of delegates from different states led to the drafting and eventual ratification of the United States Constitution, which established the framework for the nation's government.
