Confederate Private Monument

The Confederate Private Monument is a bronze sculpture of a private of the Confederate States Army, designed by George Julian Zolnay. It was commissioned by the Frank Cheatham Bivouac of the United Confederate Veterans in 1903, laid with Masonic honors in 1907, and dedicated in 1909. Visitors can view this historic monument in Centennial Park, where it stands as a public outdoor artwork. Although it was vandalized in June 2019, the statue remains a notable example of early 20th-century memorial sculpture.
