Louisville Removes Controversial Statue Of John Breckinridge Castleman

Work crews in Louisville, Ky., took down a statue of former Confederate officer John Breckinridge Castleman early Monday morning.

Louisville Metro Council member Brandon Coan tweeted an image of the now-empty spot in a traffic circle where the figure stood; nearby, the statue sat under a shroud.

On Friday, a Jefferson Circuit Court judge ruled that Louisville has the right to remove the tribute to Castleman.

"Castleman served in both the U.S. and Confederate armies," member station WFPL reports, adding "the statue portrays him in civilian clothes, but the historical markers nearby mention both his Confederate service and his role in establishing Louisville's parks system."

In Louisville, his legacy includes the city's park system – but as the Courier Journal has noted, he also ordered park facilities such as tennis courts to be segregated.
