  • Veterans Park of Cambria County memorializes the approximately 5,500 soldiers from Cambria County, Pennsylvania who fought in the Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Mexican-American War, Civil War and Spanish-American War and is located in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania. The main feature of the park is a 63 foot (19.2 m) tall grey granite monument, which consists of an obelisk and towards the base facing east is a bronze Civil War "armed sentinel" manufactured by the Gorham Co. Foundry. Around the monument are 22 plaques listing the 5,500 names of the soldiers. However, this list of soldiers is not to be considered completely accurate. There were Cambria County soldiers that were not listed on this memorial due to one or more reasons. These reasons include: the entire family may have moved out of Cambria County before the memorial was built, or, the soldier may have joined a unit that was formed in another county. A plaque just below the Armed Sentinel reads: "[e]rected to the memory of the soldiers and sailors from Cambria County, Pennsylvania who fought in defense of their country." The park is situated in the middle of town, facing Center street in a plot right next to the old Cambria County Jail. (en)
