Milwaukee War Memorials and Monuments
Our city has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to the number of monuments and memorials contained within its boundaries, and many of these sites are given over to remembering the wars of our nation's past, and the people who fought in them. While some are high profile and recognized by most Milwaukeeans, many have slipped out of notice, even to those who live nearby. This site endeavors to catalog all of these monuments and memorials, as a reference and a way to bring attention to the more neglected places on the list.
