Big Ben is actually the nickname given to the great bell of the famous clock in Westminster's tower in London. However the tower itself is generally also referred to as Big Ben. The bell rang first on May 30, 1959. A crack developed in Big Ben that year, and it is what gives the bell its distinctive tone.
