Το Άγαλμα της Ελευθερίας είναι άγαλμα, το οποίο εικονίζει την Ελευθερία ως γυναικεία μορφή και βρίσκεται σε νησάκι στην είσοδο του λιμανιού της Νέας Υόρκης.
Η ιδέα του αγάλματος ανήκει στον Γάλλο ιστορικό Εντουάρ ντε Λαμπουλέ, ο οποίος πρότεινε να κατασκευαστεί ένα μνημείο προς τιμήν της γαλλοαμερικανικής φιλίας. Το 1874, ο Φρεντερίκ Μπαρτολντί, έμπειρος γλύπτης, άρχισε να εργάζεται στο Παρίσι για την κατασκευή του, ενώ τη στατική δομή του , μελέτησε ο Γουστάβος Άιφελ.
Όταν τελείωσε, το αμερικανικό Κογκρέσο αποφάσισε να τοποθετηθεί στο συγκεκριμένο νησάκι, από όπου είναι ορατό σε όποιον μπαίνει ή βγαίνει από το λιμάνι της Νέας Υόρκης. Εγκαινιάστηκε στις 28 Οκτωβρίου του 1886.
Το άγαλμα ζυγίζει 225 τόνους και καλύπτεται από ένα περίβλημα χαλκού.
Το ύψος του, χωρίς τη βάση, είναι 46,5 μέτρα, ενώ με τη βάση διπλασιάζεται. Στο εσωτερικό του, 168 σκαλιά επιτρέπουν την άνοδο στο κεφάλι και άλλα 54 στο χέρι, που κρατάει τον πυρσό.
Η βάση του φιλοξενεί από το 1972 το Μουσείο Μετανάστευσης.
