Norfolk Confederate Monument, Confederate memorial monument in Norfolk, United States.
The granite and bronze monument stood 60 feet tall, featuring a statue of a Confederate soldier at its peak and inscriptions commemorating the Civil War.
Construction began in February 1898 with the laying of the cornerstone, marking 32 years after Jefferson Davis became president of the Confederate States.
The United Daughters of the Confederacy initiated and funded the monument through various community fundraising efforts during the late 19th century.
In 1965, the monument underwent relocation due to bank construction, moving 150 feet from its original position at Commercial Place.
The monument was removed in June 2020, with crews using a crane to dismantle both the Johnny Reb statue and its 60-foot marble column.
