Statue of Liberty Replica Monument, Bronze monument at Texas State Capitol grounds, Austin, United States
The Statue of Liberty Replica Monument is a bronze sculpture standing near the Texas State Capitol building. This miniature version displays the same recognizable features as the original, including the raised torch and crown.
The bronze replica was manufactured in 1951 by the Friedley-Voshardt Company as part of a Boy Scouts of America anniversary project. Similar monuments were placed at locations across the United States during this national campaign.
The monument reflects values of freedom and democracy that resonate with those who visit the Capitol grounds. It serves as a reminder of these principles to people exploring the area.
The monument is accessible year-round during Capitol grounds operating hours and can be viewed from outside. Visitors can examine the bronze craftsmanship and sculptural details anytime from the surrounding walkways.
A time capsule with historical documents was buried at a scout camp near Bastrop and is scheduled to be opened in 2076. This hidden treasure connects the monument to a future generation who will discover the project more than a century later.
