From the equestrian statue of Major General Howard on Cemetery Hill, down to monuments of each of the regiments. Each monument tell the events that took place those three days of battle. They also tell the history of the regiment throughout the Civil War. Unfortunately, there is not enough room on this page to fill them all, only the Krzyzanowski Battalion is shown. There are many monuments throughout the battlegrounds of Gettysburg.
All regiments have their own monument.
These monuments stand where the 11th Corps, Third Division, Second Brigade stood for battle on the first day of Gettysburg. They are placed north of town on Howard's Ave. The road bends north towards Barlow's Knoll. Each regiment dedicated their own monument in 1888 on the 25th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. The 26th Wisconsin is the only one to have two 18 inch square blocks, one on each side of the monument, indicating the right and left flank.
