Gen. Beauregard Equestrian Statue, Bronze equestrian monument at City Park entrance, New Orleans, United States

The Gen. Beauregard Equestrian Statue was a bronze sculpture depicting a Confederate general mounted on a horse, set on a marble base at the intersection of Carrollton and Esplanade Avenue. The monument was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and shaped the cityscape for decades.

The monument was created in 1915 by sculptor Alexander Doyle to commemorate a Confederate general's military role. It stood for over a century until its removal in 2017 following a city council decision.

The name refers to a prominent Confederate military figure. The statue served as a focal point in public discussions about how the past is represented in shared urban spaces.

The monument stood on Beauregard Circle, a traffic island at the junction of Carrollton and Esplanade Avenues, at the main entrance to City Park. It was a roadside feature rather than a site with its own grounds, so it was seen from the surrounding streets and crossings. The pedestal stayed in place after the statue came down in May 2017, and the base was removed later, in July 2018.

The copper box was sealed into the pedestal on November 14, 1913, a year before the statue was erected, and was only opened on August 3, 2018, after the base itself came down. Inside were photos of Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis, plus flags, currency, medals, ribbons and paper items tied to the city.
