About the monument
One million people.
One permanent monument.
One Million Lights is a digital monument built one person at a time. Each participant claims one numbered light and leaves a name, country, and short message behind.
As more people join, the monument becomes brighter. When the one-millionth light is claimed, the monument is complete.
1,000,000
Total lights
One light. One number.
Every claimed light receives its own permanent number.
Never reassigned.
Once a number is claimed, it will never belong to anyone else.
Complete at one million.
No additional lights can be added after the final place is claimed.
There will only ever be
1,000,000.
Your number can never be reassigned.
