Drafted by 33-year-old Thomas Jefferson between June 11 and June 28, 1776, the Declaration of Independence is the nation's most cherished symbol of liberty. It was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, and announced that the 13 American colonies, then at war with Great Britain, regarded themselves as independent states and no longer a part of the British Empire.

In 2026, the United States will be celebrating 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Visit the National Archives Foundation website for more information on the festivities and celebrations that are being planned for America’s 250th Anniversary.

The original Declaration of Independence is on permanent display in the Rotunda at the National Archives Museum.
