Kentucy Confederate Monument

The Kentucky Confederate Monument located at Vicksburg National Military Park in Mississippi honors the soldiers from Kentucky who fought on the Confederate side during the American Civil War. Unlike the Kentucky State Memorial dedicated to all troops, this memorial specifically commemorates the Confederate soldiers. The monument, made of granite with a marble mid-section, features an inscription detailing the contributions of Confederate Kentucky troops at Vicksburg. Erected in 2010, this memorial serves as a tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of these soldiers during this historic conflict.
