Soldiers and Sailors Monument

Hartford

Janet Hochsprung

The Solders and Sailors Monument (Memorial) honors those from Hartford who served in the Civil War. A marker noting the contributions of African Americans in that conflict has been added to the monument. On display in the nearby State Capitol are two banners that were used by Connecticut's all-black Twenty-Ninth Regiment. The Capitol is open to the public.
