Confederate Soldier Memorial, Civil War memorial statue in Courthouse Square, Huntsville, United States.
The Confederate Soldier Memorial features a granite statue holding a rifle, with inscriptions on its base honoring Civil War soldiers.
The original monument from 1905 was damaged during courthouse demolition in 1966, leading to a legal case and creation of a replacement statue.
The memorial reflects ongoing discussions about historical representation, leading to its relocation to Maple Hill Cemetery in October 2020.
The monument now stands in a dedicated section of Maple Hill Cemetery near Confederate soldiers' graves, accessible to cemetery visitors.
The current statue is a 1960s replica funded through a legal settlement after construction work destroyed the original monument.
