Museum Access
On October 28, 2011, the Statue of Liberty celebrated its 125th Anniversary. The following day, all interior spaces of the Statue, including the museum and observation level, were closed for a year-long restoration project. Access to museum is currently restricted.
Arrive Early
Be sure to arrive early at your departure point (either Battery Park in New York or Liberty State Park in New Jersey) in order to have sufficient time to pass through security. All visitors go through airport type security to get on the ferry.
