Statue of Liberty in Paris is a smaller replica of the Statue of Liberty located on the Île aux Cygnes in the Seine, near the Pont de Grenelle. Unveiled in 1889, it was given by the American community in Paris and stands as a symbol of the connection between France and the United States. Though much smaller than the New York original, it remains one of the most recognisable replicas of the monument, and its position on the narrow river island gives it a distinctive place in the Paris cityscape.
Statue of Liberty in Paris appears in Frantic (1988), National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007), Lost in Paris (2016), and The Fall (2006).
In Frantic (1988), the Statue of Liberty in Paris appears during Richard Walker’s search through the city, when the investigation leads him to the Île aux Cygnes.
In National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007), the Statue of Liberty in Paris is used as a plot location connected to the mystery Benjamin Gates is trying to solve. The Paris replica is explicitly identified in plot summaries as the statue on the Île aux Cygnes, making it one of the film’s clearer European landmark stops.
In Lost in Paris (2016), the statue appears in the sequence in which Fiona works out that Martha is on the Île aux Cygnes near the replica. The location is directly tied to the story rather than serving only as a background landmark.
In The Fall (2006), the Paris Statue of Liberty is listed among the film’s international filming locations. Here it belongs to the film’s wider collage of striking real-world visual locations.
