Description
The Freedom Tower at Miami Dade College is more than just a building — it’s a symbol of resilience, history, and cultural identity. Built in 1925 as the headquarters of Miami’s oldest newspaper, the tower became a vital refuge between 1962 and 1974, serving as the Cuban Refugee Center for thousands fleeing political persecution. Today, restored and preserved, it stands as a monument to the Cuban American legacy in Miami and a reminder of the ideals of freedom and opportunity. With its rich history, striking architecture, and cultural significance, the Freedom Tower is a must-see destination in Downtown Miami.
***DISCLAIMER***
Please note that complimentary tickets for Freedom Tower members require proof of current membership. Museum staff will verify membership status on site. Be sure to bring your digital or physical membership card to gain entry.

- The building renovation and all the exhibits are excellent. However, we felt we were inside a freezer in most inside areas - you need to raise the temperature by several degrees to make it comfortable and to save energy!
