The Liberty Bell replica in Albany NY is located inside the State Education Building across the street from the Capitol. You need to schedule a tour to see the bell up close, but some very nice guards let us in and gave us a quick look around.
Everyone we met in Albany was exceedingly nice. It’s a beautiful town. It looks like 1968’s take on the city of the future built on top of 1768’s take on the city of the future.
Hey Tom, earlier this week I visited the Bell in Albany. The guard there was very nice and escorted me to the Bell. Also I now know where to look for the representative number and actually took a pic of that too. Fascinating

Edith, Thanks for sharing. Are you saying the NY bell is #42? We had the same experience in Albany. Can you send me the photo you took, [email protected].
I will send you a pic. No this bell has a number 17 on it. My tour number is 42. I will email you my bells. This past week I picked up Minnesota. It actually is at the front of the Va building. This tour limits me to acquiring 10 bells, I now have 9. The tour doesn’t prevent me visiting others.
We just visited this bell and your directions were great. We have 8 down.
My office is in that building, probably no more than 30 yards away from the bell. If you ever come back, or need something related to this bell, just let me know. By the way, I bear a tattoo of the Liberty Bell on my right arm for the past twenty years.
Jason, Thanks for reaching out. I’m glad you get to visit the bell every day. I’ll definitely connect if I’m in Albany again.
