Big Ben rings out over London for the first time

The famous tower clock known as Big Ben, rings out over London, for the first time on May 31, 1859.
After a fire destroyed much of the headquarters of the British Parliament in October 1834, a standout feature of the new palace was a large clock atop a tower.
The name "Big Ben" originally just applied to the bell but later came to refer to the clock itself. Two main stories exist about how Big Ben got its name. Many claim it was named after the famously long-winded Sir Benjamin Hall, the London commissioner of works at the time it was built. Another famous story argues that the bell was named for the popular heavyweight boxer Benjamin Caunt, because it was the largest of its kind.
Even after an incendiary bomb destroyed the House of Commons chamber during the Second World War, Big Ben survived and continued to function.
Its famously accurate timekeeping is regulated by a stack of coins placed on the clock’s huge pendulum, ensuring a steady movement of the clock hands at all times. At night, all four of the clock's faces, each one 23 feet across, are illuminated. A light above Big Ben is also lit to let the public know when Parliament is in session.
