Benld /bəˈnɛld/ is a city in Macoupin County, Illinois, United States. The population was 1,464 at the 2020 census. The name derives from founder Benjamin L. Dorsey (d. June 19, 1895). Benld is located in the Metro-East portion of the Greater St. Louis, Missouri metropolitan area. Dorsey was responsible for gaining the land on which the town was built and coal mining rights. When it came time to name the village, he took the combination of his first name and his middle and last initial. Benld was declared the "most difficult to pronounce" place name in the state of Illinois by Reader's Digest.

  • Benld è un comune degli Stati Uniti d'America, situato in Illinois, nella Contea di Macoupin. Il 29 settembre 1938, un meteorite cadde su Benld e fu il terzo meteorite caduto nell'Illinois da quando furono registrati i dati. Il meteorite fu anche uno dei pochi meteoriti conosciuti a colpire un manufatto, provocando un foro nel tetto del garage di un certo Edward McCain e infilandosi nello schienale del sedile della sua Pontiac coupè del 1928. Un vicino di casa, Carl Crum, stava a circa 50 piedi dal punto d'impatto e fu forse la persona che fu più vicina a essere colpita da un meteorite nella storia, per quei tempi. Il meteorite e parti dell'auto colpita sono ora in mostra presso il Field Museum of Natural History a Chicago. (it)
