The Story Of The Statue Of Liberty: A Gift From France

The Statue of Liberty, one of the most popular national symbols of the US, was built in France and sent to America as a gift of friendship between the two nations. It took nine years to build the statue, and on October 28, 1886, the statue was unveiled to the world. However, the torch in her hand today is not the original piece—it was damaged over time and replaced in 1984.
