Statue of Liberty – A Universal Beacon of Freedom
Celebrate the majesty of the Statue of Liberty, a global icon that has greeted millions of hopeful immigrants and visitors to the shores of New York City. With its torch raised high and tablet inscribed with the date of the American Declaration of Independence, Lady Liberty stands as a timeless symbol of freedom, democracy, and opportunity.
A Gift from France to the World
Presented to the United States by France in 1886, the Statue of Liberty was more than just a gesture of friendship; it was a shared tribute to the ideals of liberty and peace. Designed by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and engineered by Gustave Eiffel, this copper colossus remains a marvel of 19th-century engineering and artistic ingenuity.
Did You Know?
While Lady Liberty is famed worldwide, there are hidden stories beneath her grandeur.
-
The Secret Torch Room: Once accessible to visitors, the room inside her torch offered panoramic views of New York Harbor. It has been closed to the public since 1916 due to structural concerns following an explosion during World War I.
-
The Changing Colors: Originally a shining copper hue, the statue’s surface transformed over time into the verdant green patina we see today—a natural result of oxidation that also protects the statue’s structure.
-
The Crown’s Symbolism: The seven spikes on her crown represent the seven continents and seven seas, reinforcing her message of universal freedom.
