Statues are buildings which can be built from the build menu under statue. They can be made using one stone at the mason's workshop.
Statues, like Template:Ls, depict people, places, things and times. They will depict events from the game's generated history. They do not display random geometric shapes, such as diamonds, unlike engravings. Statues often will depict creatures that the mason Template:L, or even other dwarves surrounded by the creatures they like or loathe.
Statues can have very high Template:Ls if crafted from valuable Template:Ls, such as precious metals, or if they are crafted by a highly Template:Led dwarf. This makes them a good choice for raising the value of a room to create a legendary dining room, for instance, or to meet Template:Ls' requirements for rooms of a certain value.
You can create a Template:L from a statue's query menu. Dwarves will spend time at a statue garden appreciating the statues (which generates a happy thought) and may even organize parties there.
Be careful when placing statues, because dwarves cannot move through the same square they occupy. (This will also prevent dwarves from smoothing or engraving the floor underneath a statue.) A poorly placed statue can potentially seal off parts of your fortress.
