Southwest Bronze Statue
U.S. National Park Service
Monument contributes to the national significance of the park under NR Criterion A because it represents the national movement among veterans to commemorate Civil War battlefields. Chickamauga/Chattanooga was the first U.S. national military park. || 35' granite monument with a 15' 9" x 9' 9" base features a 25' obelisk on a rusticated pedestal. Bronze figures of an infantryman and an artilleryman stand at the obelisk's base. In 1905, the stone obelisk replaced original 13' bronze palmetto tree.
