About

What to Know

The bronze Sam Houston Monument was created by Enrico Filiberto Cerrachio and unveiled in 1925. Its granite arch and equestrian figure form a prominent entrance landmark for Hermann Park. Use pedestrian routes and a safe viewing point rather than entering traffic for a closer photograph. Read the historical interpretation and consider the monument within the park's wider collection of commemorative art. This is distinct from the large standing Sam Houston statue near Huntsville.
