Big Ben Info

Big Ben

Il Big Ben era, originariamente, il soprannome dato a una campana di grandi dimensioni, fusa nel 1856, posta in cima alla torre delle Houses of Parliament. A battezzarla con questo nome è stato Sir Benjamin Hall, Chief Commissioner of Works. Oggigiorno Big Ben viene usato per indicare sia la campana che la torre. I rintocchi del Big Ben vengono trasmessi da alcune stazioni radio e televisive per annunciare il radiogiornale o il telegiornale.
