The first Civil War monument built.
We missed this last visit somehow. As the first Civil War monument built(1863)it was the highlight of this year’s visit. If I recall correctly Hazen’s brigade had 409 casualties and lost 29% of its force during the battle. 23,000 casualties that very day here at Stones River. Wow.

Hazen's heroic stand immortalized by the men who survived
I lived in Murfreesboro for many years but never heard of the legend encapsulated at Hazen Brigade Monument. It is well worth your 15 minute stop to soak in history and imagine yourself there.

Oldest Civil War monument in original location
Great monument honoring Col. William B. Hazen's brigade and the 45 men who died there. Pro tip - you can go thru the gate in the wall that surrounds the monument to examine the monument more closely.
