The Freedom Tower is a 17-floor structure located on the Wolfson campus of Miami Dade College. It has become the symbol of freedom to Cuban refugees who fled the communist regime of Fidel Castro to Florida. The Freedom Tower was built in Mediterranean revivalist style in 1925. It housed the offices and printing facility of the newspaper called The Miami News. The design closely resembles that of the Giralda Tower in Seville, Spain. It has a height of 78 meters and the cupola once had a decorative beacon. The Miami News offices relocated in 1957 and the US Federal Government used the tower as a processing center for refugees fleeing from the communist regime in Cuba during the 1960s. Jorge Mas Canosa, the founder of the Cuban National American Foundation, purchased Freedom Tower and converted it into a monument for Cuban refugees in 1997, incorporating a museum, library, convention center and the offices of the Cuban National American Foundation. Today, the Freedom Tower belongs to the Miami Dade University and is used as a cultural and educational center. The university has plans to house a permanent exhibition commemorating the major newspaper that was once published here, featuring exhibits relating to the days when the Tower served as a major Cuban refugee processing center.

This dramatic tower, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was designed in the style of a famous Spanish building, the Giralda bell tower located at the Cathedral of Seville. Just as the Statue of Liberty is known for its position welcoming incoming European immigrants, the Freedom Tower is known as the place where numerous Cuban transplants were registered during the 1960s. It is currently owned by Miami-Dade College and is used as exhibit space.
