Independence National Historical Park
Fees & Reservations
 
Admission to all park sites is free. Tickets are not needed for any park sites with the exception of Independence Hall. For entrance into Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution were signed, you must have a timed tour ticket. These tickets eliminate the long wait for Independence Hall tours and give you more time to see the other historic sites in the area.
