Saratoga Monument

A 155-foot obelisk erected 1877–1883 at Schuylerville to commemorate the centennial of Burgoyne's surrender. Four niches at the base hold statues of the American commanders who fought at Saratoga: Gates, Schuyler, Morgan, and — notably — an empty niche where Arnold's statue was planned but never placed, a deliberate omission acknowledging that the man who arguably most influenced the battle's outcome later became a traitor.
