Confederate Monument in Glasgow, Civil War memorial at Barren County Courthouse, Glasgow, United States.

The Confederate Monument features a bronze soldier at parade rest with detailed military equipment atop a limestone pedestal in downtown Glasgow.

The Kentucky Women's Monumental Association and former Confederate soldier John A. Murray established this monument in 1905 to commemorate local soldiers.

The monument represents one of twenty-three cast soldier figures among sixty Civil War monuments throughout Kentucky, reflecting regional military heritage.

Located at the intersection of Green Street and Washington Street, visitors can access the monument while exploring other historical markers near the courthouse.

Barren County, with Glasgow as its seat, produced more Confederate Medal of Honor recipients than any other Kentucky county during the Civil War.
