Description
Big Ben is the nickname for the great clock bell at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, although today the name also refers to the clock and the clock tower. The bell weighs nearly 14 tons, and each face is 23 feet in diameter. It became fully operational on September 7, 1859, and today stands 316 feet tall as one of London's most prominent landmarks. The clock requires winding three times a week, and pennies are periodically added to or removed from the pendulum mechanism to maintain its accuracy.
