Marilyn Monroe

The Marilyn Monroe attraction in Key West is a public art piece or installation that pays homage to one of the most iconic figures in American cultural history. Key West has always been a city that celebrates larger-than-life personalities, and Marilyn fits naturally into that tradition — just as the island has long drawn artists, writers, and free spirits who appreciate beauty and irreverence in equal measure. Visiting public art installations like this one is one of the pleasures of wandering Key West's streets at your own pace. The combination of history, art, and outdoor discovery makes Old Town Key West one of the most walkable and rewarding urban experiences in South Florida.
