The idea of the Liberty Bell began with the Pennsylvania Assembly, which in 1751 ordered the construction of a monument to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Charter of Privileges, founder William Penn's blueprint for government of his beloved state. Based partly on a verse in the Christian Bible's Old Testament, the Assembly ordered a bell for the steeple of the Pennsylvania State House.
