The Illinois State Memorial at Vicksburg National Military Park as seen in the distance atop Champion Hill with the battlefield’s dramatic rolling hills in the foreground.
The monument, dedicated on October 26, 1906, was designed to be “a grand and imposing structure worthy of the State of Illinois.” Opulent on the outside, it gets even better on the inside. Stone Mountain, Georgia granite was used on the base and stairway. Above the base is Georgia white marble. There are forty-seven steps, one for each day of the Siege of Vicksburg. Modeled after the Roman Pantheon, the monument has sixty unique bronze tablets lining its interior walls, naming all 36,325 Illinois soldiers who participated in the Campaign. Atop the memorial sits a bronze bald eagle. The monument stands sixty-two feet in height and cost the state of Illinois $194,423.92 to build.
