Confederate Monument in Louisville
Confederate Monument in Louisville, Confederate memorial in Louisville, United States
The 70-foot granite and bronze monument features a Confederate soldier statue at its crown overlooking the surrounding landscape.
The Kentucky Woman's Confederate Monument Association raised funds to construct this memorial, which was completed in 1895 by the Muldoon Monument Company.
The monument stood at the University of Louisville until 2016, when debates about Confederate symbols led to its relocation to Brandenburg.
The memorial now stands in Brandenburg's riverfront park, where Civil War reenactments occur every two years for visitors.
Inside the cornerstone, builders placed a copper box containing Confederate currency, Jefferson Davis's cigar, photographs, and newspapers from 1895.
