Le Rocky Statue and the Rocky Steps are undeniably two of the most popular and quintessential stops in Philadelphia.
A steady flow of people arrives daily at the Philadelphia Museum of Art to run up the steps and snap a picture with the statue, a bona fide monument to the celluloid hero and the City of Brotherly Love’s favorite fictional son.
New for 2026: The Rocky Statue is now located at the top of the Rocky Steps. The former statue location — near the bottom of the Rocky Steps — is slated to become home to the statue of real-life Philadelphian and boxing legend Smokin’ Joe Frazier, coming later in the year.
Visitors often hustle up the museum’s grand stairway to try their hand at Rocky’s famous two-arms-raised salute — all while soaking up picture-perfect views of the Philadelphia skyline.
In short, running up the steps, visiting the statue and taking a picture at the top is a must on any visit to Philadelphia. Consider it a rite of passage.
Best of all: Visiting the Rocky Steps and snapping a photo with the Rocky Statue is gratuit.
Here’s how to do it.
Le Statue de Rocky — depicting a larger-than-life boxer — is one of Philadelphia’s most famous pieces of art public.
Le personnage fictif Rocky Balboa, créé par Sylvester Stallone Rocky Les films ont été immortalisés dans le bronze par l'artiste A. Thomas Schomberg en 1980 pour une scène du film. Rocky III. After filming was complete, Stallone donated the statue to the City of Philadelphia.

The statue awaiting visitors at the top of the steps — on loan from Sly Stallone’s private collection — replaces the City of Philadelphia’s statue that once stood near the bottom of the steps. That statue can now be found on display inside the museum’s new Rocky exhibition, Rising Up : Rocky et la création de monuments (April 25 to August 2, 2026).
Come August 2026, the City of Philadelphia’s statue returns to replace Stallone’s at the top of the stairs permanently.
Just as famous as the statue are the steps leading to the east entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, aka the Rocky Steps.
Each year, tens of thousands of people recreate the scene from the legendary movie and make the trek up the steps.
