The Statue of Liberty is more than just a monument - it is a symbol of freedom for people all over the world. The story of this iconic monument is nothing if not one of change. After the installation of “The New Colossus” on a plate in the pedestal in the year 1903, the importance of Lady Liberty increased as she became a source of inspiration to immigrants who encountered her as they made their way to America. You could also read about the history of the Statue and understand its significance as a universal symbol of freedom. You can enter the pedestal by booking the available ticket option and climb 215 steps or approximately 10 stories to the top of the pedestal to enjoy the view from atop this man-made wonder!
