The Official and Unofficial Civil War
Eighteen monuments around Washington are officially designated as Civil War monuments. While most look like war monuments - a general on a horse - some, like Dupont Fountain, do not evoke war. The list was created before this bronze group commemorating the service of black soldiers was dedicated in 1997.
The ultimate collection of Civil War monuments is in the town of Gettysburg. A visit there is essential to anyone interested in US history.
