Confederate Soldier Monument in Lexington
Confederate Soldier Monument in Lexington, Civil War memorial at Lexington Cemetery, United States.
The Confederate Soldier Monument features a bronze statue mounted on a stone base with inscriptions listing 160 veterans who served in the Confederate Army.
The monument was constructed in 1893 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 as part of the Civil War Monuments of Kentucky submission.
Four Lexington residents funded this memorial, which includes a statue created in Carrara, Italy, and installed by the Muldoon Monument Company.
The monument stands in Lexington Cemetery alongside other Civil War memorials, including the Ladies' Confederate Memorial, offering visitors insights into Kentucky's divided history.
The monument's relocation from its original courthouse location to the cemetery in 2018 reflects changing perspectives on Civil War commemorative structures.
