The Confederate Monument in Frankfort is placed within a circle of the graves of 68 Confederate soldiers in Frankfort Cemetery in Kentucky.[2] The statue depicts a life size Confederate soldier standing ready, carved from white Carrara marble and standing atop a granite pedestal on a limestone base.[1] A flagpole displays the first flag of the Confederacy with seven stars.[3] The monument was erected by Daughters of the Confederacy and unveiled in 1892.[4]

In 1997, the monument was placed on the National Register of Historic Places as one of 60 Civil War monuments in Kentucky. Frankfort has one other, the Colored Soldiers Monument which is located in Green Hill Cemetery.[5]

Inscriptions

The granite pedestal has an inscription on each of its four sides; the fourth being part of the last stanza of the Bivouac of the Dead,[6] written by Theodore O'Hara, who is also buried in Frankfort Cemetery.[7]

Face:

"Our Confederate Dead
1861–1865
They sleep—what need to question now
if they were right or wrong:
They know ere this whose cause was
just in God the Father's sight
They wield no warlike weapons now
return no foeman's thrust
Who but a coward would revile
an honored soldier's dust."[8]

East side:

"To every man upon this earth death comes soon or late, and how can man die better than facing fearful odds for the ashes of his father, and the temple of his God."[8]

Reverse:

"Greater love hath no man than
this that a man lay down his
life for his friends."[4]

West side:

"The marble minstrels voiceful tone
In deathless songs shall tell
When many a vanished age hath flown
The story, how ye fell;
Nor wreak, nor change, nor winter blight,
Nor time's remoreseless doom
Shall dim one ray of holy light
That gilds your glorious tomb."[4]
