Ellis Island was the gateway through which more than 12 million immigrants passed between 1892 and 1954 in their search for freedom of speech and religion, and for economic opportunity in the United States. Because of its unique historical importance, it was declared part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument in 1965. After a six-year, $162 million renovation, it reopened to the public as a museum in 1990.

For three quarters of a century, the National Park Service has endeavored to preserve America's parklands for generations to come. The National Park Service and concessionaire ARAMARK work to provide everything you need for a memorable visit.
