Knott's Independence Hall During America 250

Independence Hall sits outside the main gate at Knott's Berry Farm. The replica has long been one of Knott's quieter historical stops, which makes the July 3-4 open house a natural fit for the holiday weekend.

Knott's is also keeping its summer rides, shows, and Knott's Soak City water park in the holiday mix. Soak City requires separate admission.
