The Statue of Liberty in Dauphin Pennsylvania

The Statue of Liberty in Dauphin Pennsylvania

In Dauphin Pennsylvania you will find a tribute to lady liberty, the Statue of Liberty that is! If you are ever driving up route 322/22 and passing through Dauphin you will see Pennsylvania’s tribute to the Statue of Liberty sitting out in the middle of the Susquehanna River.

Although she looks small in size in this photo, she actually stands 25 feet tall and sits on an old stone bridge column. The only way to get to her is by boat and going out into the middle of the river.

Over the years she has become quite the “tourist” attraction around here and those who enjoy taking road trips through south central Pennsylvania usually make a point to stop and see her. The traffic is very busy on route 322/33 so you will definitely need to pull off at a safe place to get a good look at her.

She was made back in the late 80’s by a local artist in the area with community and business donations who helped to fund the project. On clear weather days (no river fog) you can really get a good look at her and I must say…she is beautiful!

Well there you have it! Another “Almost” Wordless Wednesday post for this week. Enjoy!
