Confederate-Union Veterans' Monument in Morgantown, Civil War memorial at courthouse grounds in Morgantown, US
The monument features a life-sized zinc statue of a Union soldier wearing a kepi hat and winter coat while holding a rifle atop a twelve-foot pedestal.
Built in 1907, this monument represents both Union and Confederate veterans who served during the American Civil War from Butler County, Kentucky.
The pedestal displays images of notable figures including Ulysses S. Grant, Abraham Lincoln, and Joseph Wheeler, along with names of local citizens who served.
The memorial stands eighteen feet tall and is located at the Butler County Courthouse, where visitors can examine inscriptions from all sides of the pedestal.
This structure marks one of only two monuments in Kentucky that honor both Union and Confederate soldiers rather than commemorating a single faction.
