The Betsy Ross House is generally recognized as the place where Betsy Ross lived when she may have made the first American Flag. Several of her surviving family members, including daughters, grandchildren and a niece said that this was the location of the legendary event. The house is located at 239 Arch Street, just blocks from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The front portion of the building was built around 1740, with the stair hall (or piazza) and the rear section added 10 to 20 years later. Over the years, various structural changes to the house and general wear and tear left the house in dire need of restoration. Known torist attractions.
