    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Robert E. Lee Monument   (Meadowbrook, Virginia)]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The first and largest monument created for Monument Avenue, the Robert E. Lee Monument was a focal point in Richmond, Virginia. It was composed of two distinct parts: a prominent base, designed by Paul Pujol, and a large statue designed by the renowned French sculptor Antonin Mercié, that featured Lee atop his horse, Traveller, looking out proudly over the streets. The Monument has long been a source of controversy and was finally dismantled and removed on 8 September 2021. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Wirz Monument   (Oglethorpe, Georgia)]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Wirz Monument was dedicated in 1909 by the United Daughters of the Confederacy to commemorate, and exonerate, Captain Heinrich Hartmann Wirz who served as the commander of the Andersonville Civil War Prison between 1864-65. Wirz was hanged in Washington, DC in 1865 with a conviction of murder and conspiracy by a military tribunal. The monument is a thirty-five-foot-tall granite obelisk. Both the pedestal's base and the obelisk's base rest on layers of rough, unpolished granite. The pedestal's base is boldly inscribed with the word "WIRZ." The pedestal's four sides bear individual inscriptions. The monument is still standing and is the site of an annual memorial service for Henry Wirz each November hosted by the Alexander H. Stephens Camp 78, Sons of 
Confederate Veterans.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A Hall of Harvard Alumni was proposed in 1865 to commemorate the Harvard graduates who fought for the Union during the Civil War. It was intended as "a symbol of Boston's commitment to the Unionist cause and the abolitionist movement in America', but also served a practical function-- to provide a theatre and a gathering space for visiting alumni. The final outcome of the project encompasses Sanders Theatre, Annenberg Hall, the Memorial Transept and Loker Commons, and home of the Cambridge Queen's Head Pub.]]></dcterms:description>
