What is the Statue of Liberty?

Liberty Enlightening the World, known more commonly as the Statue of Liberty, is a statue given to the United States by France in the late 19th century, standing at Liberty Island in the mouth of the Hudson River in New York Harbor as a welcome to all returning Americans, visitors, and immigrants. The copper statue, dedicated on October 28, 1886, commemorates the centennial of the United States and is a gesture of friendship between the two nations. The sculptor was Frederic Auguste Bartholdi; Gustave Eiffel, the designer of the Eiffel Tower, engineered the internal supporting structure. The Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons of the U.S. worldwide; in a more general sense, the statue represents liberty and escape from oppression. It is also a favored symbol of libertarians.

French ship that carried the Statue of Liberty?

The Isere transported 214 crates of parts of the Statue of Liberty. Owing to limited cargo capacity and lack of available big cranes, a small flotilla was needed to transport the statue's superstructure to the US. There were several ships involved. The pedestal of the statue was, however, made in the USA, and this was financed largely by newspaper subscriptions and pennies from school childen, as the Federal Government would not sponsor such a frivolous project. The Statue is on the Jersey Side of the Harbor in New York!
