Facts and practical information

The Paragould War Memorial is a scaled-down replica of the Statue of Liberty, located in Courthouse Park near the Greene County Courthouse at the heart of Paragould, Arkansas. The statue is a bronze cast created by John Paulding, and was cast at the American Art Bronze Foundry in Chicago, Illinois in 1920. The statue is 95 inches high, and is mounted on a rectangular marble base 80 inches high. It was erected to honor the city's soldiers who participated in World War I, and is the only sculptural memorial into Arkansas from that war that is not a doughboy statue. ()
