Stuart Memorial, Heritage memorial in Queens Gardens, Dunedin, New Zealand

The Stuart Memorial is a bronze statue of Donald McNaughton Stuart seated on a curule chair, holding a walking stick and wearing a shepherd's plaid. It stands on a plinth of concrete, granite, andesite and Tasmanian sandstone, raised to 5 metres in 1922, giving the monument a total height of about 7 metres. The inscription reads "D M Stuart, Erected by the people of Otago, 1898".

Donald McNaughton Stuart, Knox Church's first minister and University of Otago chancellor from 1879, died in May 1894. A memorial committee formed that month and commissioned Wellington artist William Leslie Morison, who modelled the seated figure from photographs without ever meeting Stuart. Cast at the Moore foundry near London, the bronze was unveiled on 22 June 1898.

Donald Stuart was known for performing marriages for people of different faiths, which was uncommon for a Presbyterian minister at the time. The choice to place his figure in a public garden, rather than near a church, shows how the city saw him as belonging to everyone.

The memorial sits within Queens Gardens and can be seen from several points around the park. The area is easy to reach on foot, and there is enough open space around the monument to walk around and take it in from different angles.

The statue was turned in 1922 so that Stuart faces the nearby statue of Queen Victoria. The taller plinth was later called "slightly pompous" by the Otago Daily Times. The monument's inscription reads "D M Stuart, Erected by the people of Otago, 1898".
