Liberty statue in San Marino.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Statue of Liberty of San Marino is a gift received from a German noblewoman, Ms. Otilia Heyroth Wagener. She commissioned one of the most esteemed sculptors on the international scene, Stefano Galletti, and gave the order to create the work using the precious Italian Carrara marble as raw material. On 30 September 1876, a few months after the sculptor was commissioned, the Statue of Liberty was solemnly inaugurated in front of the Palazzo Pubblico and gave its name to the square below: Piazza della Libertà (Liberty place). The San Marino government, in response to a gesture as noble as it was welcome, granted the Duchess her noble title as Duchess of Acquaviva, one of the nine castles of the Republic of San Marino. The statue represents freedom as a warrior woman who proudly advances towards the future, with her right hand stretched forward, while holding the flag in her left hand. A crown has been sculpted around the head like a city wall from which the three towers rise, a symbol of San Marino over the centuries.
