Big Ben is the common name for the Great Bell of the Great Clock of Westminster, and by extension to the clock tower and the clock itself. The Great Clock of Westminster is a striking clock with five bells. The clock tower is at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London, England, and was originally known simply as the Clock Tower, but was renamed Elizabeth Tower in 2012 to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Elizabeth II.
