The Yorktown Victory Monument in Maryland was erected to commemorate the decisive victory of the American and French troops over the British army in 1781. The victory at Yorktown marked the end of the major battles of the American Revolutionary War. The monument was completed in 1881, exactly one hundred years after General Cornwallis's surrender. It rises majestically above the historic battlefield and is constructed of light-colored granite with intricate reliefs depicting liberty and victory motifs. At its summit stands the statue of Lady Liberty, a symbol of freedom and independence. Beyond its historical significance, the Victory Monument is a popular attraction for visitors interested in learning more about the Revolutionary War. It is located at the heart of the Colonial National Historical Park, which also contains the original fortifications and historic buildings of Yorktown.
