This towering monument to liberty was built in Paris by French sculptor Bartholdi in collaboration with Gustave Eiffel (who designed the steel frame) as a gift from France on the occasion of the centennial of American independence. Completed in 1886, the sculpture stands at the entrance to New York Harbor and has welcomed millions of immigrants to the United States ever since.
