The Nelson Monument is a commemorative obelisk built in 1806 in honour of Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson, constructed the year after his death at the Battle of Trafalgar. It is located within Glasgow Green, a historic public park in Glasgow, Scotland. It stands 144 feet tall, and its square plinth is enclosed by cast iron railings.The obelisk was designed by the architect David Hamilton.
A plaque in front of the column records that it was the first civic monument in Britain to Nelson's victories, funded by a public subscription. The foundation stone was laid on 1 August 1806, and the monument was constructed by the mason A. Brockett.
