Liberty Monument is a historic monument located at Ticonderoga in Essex County, New York. It was built in 1924 and is a bronze sculpture on a tiered granite base. The lower part of the sculture is composed of four live-sized figures of a Native American, Frenchman, Englishman, and an American. They symbolize the four groups whose military exploits are part of Ticonderoga's past. The second part is the artist Charles Keck's (1875-1951) interpretation of Liberty.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
