The Statue of Liberty is struck by lightning about 600 times per year, according to the National Park Service. The statue is made of copper, which is an excellent conductor of electricity, so it attracts lightning strikes. The strikes do not cause significant damage to the statue due to its design and materials. Lightning protection systems are in place to safely conduct the electricity to the ground.
On June 15, 1885 the Statue of Liberty made its way (in pieces) to New York. A lot of work was left to be done getting it ready to be unveiled. Unveiling day, October 28, 1886, was declared a public holiday.
