Liberty Island, New York, NY 10004

The Statue of Liberty, located on Liberty Island in New York City, is one of the most iconic landmarks in the United States. Gifted by France in 1886, it stands as a symbol of freedom and democracy, with its torch held high. The statue, designed by Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, is a figure of Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, and is made of copper that has turned green due to oxidation.

Visitors can explore the statue’s pedestal, which houses a museum showcasing the statue’s history and construction process. For a more immersive experience, one can climb up to the crown for a panoramic view of the New York City skyline. A short ferry ride away is Ellis Island, another significant historical site, which was the gateway for over 12 million immigrants to the United States.

Plan your visit

Planning a visit to the iconic Statue of Liberty in New York City? Here are some tips and tricks for a memorable experience: 1. Make sure to book your tickets ahead of time - these can be purchased online or at Castle Clinton National Monument. 2. Wear comfortable shoes and clothing, as you will likely be standing in line for long periods of time. 3. Prepare yourself with snacks and drinks - no food or beverages are allowed inside the monument itself. 4. Pack an extra set of clothes if you plan on taking pictures near the statue, as spray from the nearby Hudson River may dampen your attire!
