The Confederate Memorial was erected in Arlington National Cemetery to honor the Civil War's Confederate dead, who had long been excluded from the graveyard in favor of Union soldiers. It is located on the far east side of the cemetery. The 32-foot memorial features a woman crowned with olive leaves, gesturing to the South to acknowledge the sacrifice made by her fallen sons.
