Gen. Beauregard Equestrian Statue
Gen. Beauregard Equestrian Statue, Bronze equestrian monument at City Park entrance, New Orleans, United States
The bronze statue featured General P.G.T. Beauregard mounted on a horse atop a marble base at Carrollton and Esplanade Avenue intersection.
Alexander Doyle created this National Register of Historic Places monument in 1915 to commemorate Confederate General Beauregard's military leadership.
The statue represented changing perspectives on Confederate symbols, leading to debates about historical representation in public spaces.
The monument stood at the center of a traffic roundabout until its removal in 2017 following a New Orleans City Council decision.
A copper time capsule from 1913 containing Confederate memorabilia was discovered inside the pedestal during the statue's removal in 2018.
