• Product Description

• A classic set of magnets for the home or office, each commemorates the Charters of Freedom documents, in the colors that were in popular use at the time of their drafting. The Declaration of Independence , the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights are all on permanent exhibit in the Rotunda at the National Archives Museum.

Known collectively as the Charters of Freedom, the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights are instrumental to the founding of the United States and its enduring identity and philosophy. These three documents declared the colonies’ freedom and independence, established the federal government, and enshrined the rights of the American people forever.

On December 13, 1952, the Charters of Freedom were permanently relocated from the Library of Congress to the National Archives in a procession of tanks in an armored personnel carrier. Upon arrival, the documents were placed in a custom-built, 50-ton, steel and concrete, bomb- and fire-proof safe.

The Charters of Freedom are on permanent display in the Rotunda of the National Archives Building.
