While many know the iconic Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor, few realize that a smaller, original version resides peacefully in Paris’s Jardin du Luxembourg. Nestled among tree-lined paths and elegant flowerbeds, this bronze statue is a surprising yet meaningful sight.

Created by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, the sculptor of the monumental Liberty in the U.S., this 2.85-meter replica was one of the first models he used when developing the final design gifted to America. Originally installed in 1906 near the western entrance of the garden, it stood as a symbol of friendship between France and the United States.

After being removed in 2011 for preservation and replaced with a copy, the original was moved to the Musée d'Orsay for safekeeping. However, the replica in the Luxembourg Gardens still draws visitors who stumble upon it while exploring the park’s fountains, statues, and charming Medici Palace.

The statue shows Liberty holding her torch high and a tablet inscribed with July 4, 1776 — the date of American independence. It’s a quiet reminder of the shared democratic ideals between two nations.

For those looking to uncover lesser-known stories in Paris, this graceful statue offers a thoughtful pause in one of the city’s most...

La statue de l'île aux cygnes mesure 11m50, c'est l'agrandissement au quart de la statue originale (46m50). C'est une réplique basée sur le modèle en plâtre que Bartholdi fit faire pour faire ses calculs d'agrandissement. Son socle, étroit et très haut, porte une plaque commémorative.

Cette statue se trouve sur l'île aux cygnes, une île artificielle en plein Paris qui fut créé pour pouvoir construire le pont de Grenelle. De nos jours cette île sert d'appui à 3 ponts parisiens. La statue est un don des Etats-Unis à la France, un cadeau de réciprocité du pays récepteur de la statue envers celui qui lui a fait le cadeau. Alors que la véritable statue fut inaugurée qu'en octobre 1885, c'est dès 1884 que le comité des Américains de Paris lança une souscription pour construire une réplique de la statue à offrir à la France. Celle-ci fut rapidement financée et en mai 1885 eut lieu une cérémonie d'inauguration, soit 6 mois avant l'inauguration de sa grande sœur New-Yorkaise ! Toutefois il ne s'agissait pas de la statue définitive, qui ne sera prête que 2 ans plus tard mais d'un moule en plâtre qui fut installé place des Etats-Unis. C'était un modèle à taille réelle, soit 11m50 de haut, et la place des Etats-Unis est bien petite pour accueillir un tel monument. Du coup elle fut rapidement écartée, dès que la statue réelle, en bronze, arriva. Elle fut installée sur l'île aux cygnes en 1889, inaugurée par le président Sadi Carnot le 14 juillet. Cette date n'était pas anodine car la statue n'a qu'une différence avec celle des Etats-Unis : L'inscription de sa tablette, où il est écrit "IV Juillet 1776 = XIV Juillet 1789", pour mettre en évidence les deux dates d'indépendance des peuples.

L'un des problèmes qui apparut fut que 1889 correspondait aussi à l'exposition universelle de Paris. Son inauguration fut noyée dans le vacarme des festivités. Il y eu aussi le problème de l'orientation de la statue : il était inenvisageable que la statue ne soit pas face aux Parisiens, elle était donc tournée vers la tour Eiffel toute proche (qui, à l'époque, n'était pas sensée rester, elle devait être démontée après l'exposition) Auguste Bartholdi se lamentait que sa statue tourne le dos aux Etats-Unis, mais il ne put rien faire. C'est bien après sa mort, lors de la nouvelle exposition universelle de 1937 que la statue fut tournée vers l'Ouest. (La capitale s'était couverte de pavillons corporatistes, l'île aux cygnes était consacrée aux colonies françaises)

En 1998 la statue de l'île aux cygnes fut prêtée au Japon à l'occasion de l'année de la France là-bas. Elle fut installée sur l'île d'Odaïba, dans la baie de Tokyo. Cette courte période d'un an (printemps 1998-printemps 1999) est la seule de son histoire qu'elle ne passa pas sur les quais de la Seine. D'ailleurs on peut noter la volonté des sélectionneurs d'œuvres d'art qui choisirent la réplique de la statue de la Liberté pour représenter la capacité artistique française au Japon. Pas si curieux que ça, ça a permis aux japonais de se remémorer que Miss Liberty est avant...

A hidden jem of Jardins de Luxembourg! Taking the number of all the paths you can actually follow inside the park, chances are not high you can easily run into it unless you read about it somewhere. It took me quite a while to finally find, but was well worth it. Of course the statue is not an original size of the one you find in NYC, it was just a prototype copy, but it is still big enough for you to have your selfie with. Moreover, the fact it is not really easy to locate it and not everyone knows about it, makes it a quiet tourist spot where you can have quite some one on one time with...

For the Exposition Universelle of 1900, Frédéric Bartholdi created a smaller version of the Statue of Liberty. It was placed outside Musée du Luxembourg in 1905 where it stood until 2014. It is currently on display at the entrance of Musée d’Orsay. This bronze replica stands in its place at Jardin du Luxembourg. On a beautiful fall day it attracts a lot of visitors. A meaningful visit for American tourists as the statue represents the enduring friendship between our two countries.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This hidden gem is a smaller replica of the iconic New York statue, and it's perfectly nestled among the lush greenery and stunning surroundings of the park. It's an excellent spot for photo ops, and I loved learning about the history behind the statue. If you're in Paris, make sure to take a stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens and visit this magnificent replica. A must-see for history buffs and those who appreciate the beauty of art and architecture. Highly recommended!
