Home›Monuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures›Building Family›Commemorative Statues, Columns and MarkersGroupCommemorative Statues, Columns and MarkersFreestanding commemorative statues, columns and memorial markers this atlas records under Monuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures, honoring an individual or an event outside a specifically military or wartime context: among them Pocomoke Farm, now the Makemie Monument Park, whose defining feature is a 1907 memorial marker and family cemetery honoring the Presbyterian founder Francis Makemie. Belongs here: any commemorative statue, column or memorial marker this subcategory records. Does not belong here: a war memorial or military cemetery, gathered under this subcategory's own War Memorials, Military Cemeteries and Camps group instead.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonOrigin RegionWell-attestedEgypt (Twelfth Dynasty) 1Browse ByAll Commemorative Statues, Columns and MarkersCommemorative Statues, Columns and Markers20 entriesCommemorative Statues, Columns and MarkersFilter Results20 entriesArchitectAllGustave Eiffel (1)StyleAllEmpire Style (1)Georgian Architecture (1)Greek Revival Architecture (1)High-Tech Architecture (1)Indo-Saracenic Architecture (1)Modernist Architecture (1)Neoclassical Architecture (5)MaterialAllBrick (1)Bronze (1)Concrete (1)Copper (1)Granite (2)Limestone (1)Marble (5)Stainless Steel (1)Steel (1)Stone (3)Building TypeAllFarm (1)Fluted Doric column (1)Military cemetery and memorial (1)Monument (8)national memorial (2)Roman triumphal column (1)Triumphal arch (3)War memorial (1)War memorial sculpture (1)Completed YearAll113 (1)315 (1)1671 (1)1830 (1)1843 (1)1873 (1)1886 (1)1896 (1)1907 (1)1922 (1)1924 (1)1931 (2)1943 (1)1956 (1)1960 (1)1965 (1)1967 (1)2001 (1)Standing StatusAllStanding (19)GroupAllCommemorative Statues, Columns and Markers (20)PlaceAllBrazil (1)France (1)Germany (1)Hungary (1)India (2)Italy (2)Portugal (1)Russia (1)Ukraine (1)United Kingdom (4)United States (5)BrowseCompareSelect all 20Arch of ConstantineMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksChrist the RedeemerMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures1 linkCristo ReiMonuments, Towers and Commemorative StructuresGateway ArchMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksGateway of IndiaMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksIndependence Monument, KyivMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksIndia GateMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures1 linkJefferson MemorialMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures4 linksLincoln MemorialMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures4 linksMillennium MonumentMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures1 linkMonument to the Great Fire of LondonMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures2 linksMotherland CallsMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures2 linksNelson's ColumnMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures4 linksNormandy American Cemetery and MemorialMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures2 linksPadrao dos DescobrimentosMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksPocomoke FarmMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures1 linkStatue of LibertyMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures4 linksTrajan's ColumnMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures2 linksVictory ColumnMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures2 linksWellington ArchMonuments, Towers and Commemorative Structures3 linksSources1.
