On July 3, 1963, Florida Congressman Sam Gibbons dedicated the Florida Monument on West Confederate Avenue. The monument features a simple design of three gray granite monoliths, emblazoned with the state seal, a brief narrative, and three stars each representing one of the Florida regiments of Perry's Brigade that fought at Gettysburg. The monument is located near the site where Perry's Brigade arranged their battle lines prior to the charges of July 2 and 3, 1863.
