Big Ben is de bijnaam van de grote klok die in de klokkentoren van het Palace of Westminster in Londen hangt. De Big Ben is zowel luidklok als slagklok. De klok is een van de zwaarste ter wereld. Rondom de klok staat het opschrift This bell was cast by George Mears of Whitechapel for the clock of the Houses of Parliament under the direction of Edmund Becket Denison QC in the 21st year of the reign of Queen Victoria in the year of our Lord MDCCCLVIII.
De naam van de toren is tegenwoordig 'Elizabeth Tower'.
Vaak worden ook het uurwerk of zelfs de hele toren 'Big Ben' genoemd.
