The Statue of Liberty's crown is welcoming visitors again for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down New York City in 2020.
The crown of the Statue of Liberty National Monument reopens Tuesday, October 11.
Those looking to visit the statue should book tickets early, as slots fill up months in advance.
The grounds of Liberty Island reopened in July 2020, with the statue’s pedestal observation deck reopening nearly a year later.
Tickets include access to the statue's crown and pedestal, as well as access to the grounds of Liberty Island and Ellis Island. Officials recommend setting aside at least half-a-day to take the tour.
If you plan on going up to the crown, get ready to climb. There are 162 narrow and tight steps from the top of the pedestal to the crown -- from Lady Liberty's feet to her head -- and no elevator access.
Tickets cost $24.30 for adults, $18.30 for seniors 62+ and $12.30 for children ages 4-12. Children under 48” are restricted from access to the crown.
