The Confederate-Union Veterans' Monument in front of the Butler County Courthouse in Morgantown, Kentucky, was built in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War, which helped alleviate the bitterness both sides felt toward the other when it was dedicated to the sacrifice of veterans of both sides of the Civil War.

It has a life-sized zinc statue of a Union soldier with kepi hat, winter great coat, and rifle.

It stands atop a twelve-foot pedestal, making the entire monument eighteen feet in height.

Depictions of Ulysses S. Grant, Abraham Lincoln, and Joseph Wheeler are placed on three sides of the pedestal.

As a reflection of the joint effort made to build the statue, the monument refers to the conflict as the "War of 1861-5".
