The Ellis Island Immigration Museum is an important and iconic part of America's history. Over 12 million passed through the island while it was in operation. Today, more than 40% of Americans have an ancestor who entered the country through Ellis Island.

Liberty Enlightening the World
Located on a 12 acre island, the Statue of "Liberty Enlightening the World" was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States and is a universal symbol of freedom and democracy. The Statue of Liberty was dedicated on October 28, 1886, designated as a National Monument in 1924 and restored for her centennial on July 4, 1986.

Ellis Island
Ellis Island Immigration Museum is part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument. It was added to the National Park System in May of 1965 and following an extensive restoration, its main building opened over a quarter century later on September 10, 1990 as a National Museum of Immigration.
