The California Veterans Memorial in Sacramento is a poignant tribute to the more than five million Californians who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces since statehood in 1850. Governor Pete Wilson's words at the dedication in 1998 encapsulate the monument's purpose of honoring the service, sacrifice, and courage of veterans.

Surrounded by a grove of trees, the memorial features a 30-foot black granite obelisk adorned with images of war etched into its panels, symbolizing the hardships and sacrifices of California veterans. This powerful monument serves as a reminder of the price paid for freedom and inspires patriotic reflection among visitors.
