The William Penn statue atop Philadelphia City Hall holds the title as the tallest sculpture on top of any building in the world. It stands at 37 feet (11.3 meters) tall and is perched atop the 548-foot (167-meter) tower of City Hall, making the entire structure an iconic centerpiece of Philadelphia’s skyline.
Sculpted by Alexander Milne Calder, the statue represents the founder of Pennsylvania and has become a significant symbol of the city.
