The Nelson Monument on Glasgow Green is a 144-foot (44 m) tall stone obelisk built in 1806 to commemorate the naval victories of Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson. It is notable for being the first civic monument in Britain erected in Nelson's honour, preceding the more famous Nelson's Column in London's Trafalgar Square by over 30 years.
