The R. E. Lee Camp Confederate Soldiers' Home, located in Richmond, Virginia, was founded on January 1, 1885, by the R. E. Lee Camp No. 1 as a support home for veterans of the Confederate States Army after the American Civil War. The camp home was built with private funds from both Confederate and Union veterans (the Grand Army of the Republic being one of its biggest donators). Due to the bipartisan support of the home, the Confederate Soldiers' Home became a favorite meeting site for the Blue and Gray reunions.The building complex includeg a hospital, a dining hall, a workshop, a recreation center, 10 cottages, a nondenominational chapel, and a laundry center, among other services for the veterans. Throughout the 56-year history of the home, from 1885 until the final resident passed away in 1941, the home saw around 3,000 total residents, with peak residency reaching 300 at one time during 1890–1910.After the final resident passed away, the Commonwealth of Virginia was given ownership and designated it a Confederate memorial park. A notable practitioner at the home was Joseph DeJarnette, a vocal proponent of racism and eugenics (specifically the sterilization of the mentally ill) whose uncle, Daniel Coleman DeJarnette Sr., was part of the First and Second Confederate Congress as well as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and the United States House of Representatives. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is now on the grounds of the R. E. Lee Camp Confederate Soldiers' Home.

Confederate Memorial Chapel is a historic interdenominational memorial chapel located in Richmond, Virginia. Dedicated on May 8, 1887, it is a white frame, Gothic Revival style structure with a clipped gable roof of grey tin and a belfry. The funds to build the chapel, which totaled $4,000, were raised by private citizens, veterans, and through the proceeds of benefit auctions of donated tobacco. The chapel served as a place of worship for the R. E. Lee Camp Confederate Soldier's Home, which was the nation's first successful and longest operating residential complex for Confederate veterans of the Civil War. Not only did the chapel represent a place of worship, but it also played a significant role in the daily lives of those that lived at the soldier's home as the structure served as an auditorium for lectures, concerts, and meeting. The chapel also held the distinction for holding approximately 1,700 funeral services. The chapel's interior is of pine with vaulted ceilings. Rows of hand-hewn pews face a raised chancel furnished with gothic revival chairs, lectern, and pulpit. These are then framed by a soaring three-arch opening inscribed with gilded lettering. The central arch proclaims: "This Chapel is Dedicated to the Memory of the Confederate Dead" and its flanking arches state: "In this Place Will I Give Peace" / "Saint the Lord of Hosts." The sides of the chapel also features eight commemorative stained glass windows manufactured by the Belcher Mosaic Company which all date back to the 19th century and are dedicated to the soldiers and/or battalions of the Confederacy.It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.

The Museum District, alternately known as West of the Boulevard, is a neighborhood in the city of Richmond, Virginia. It is anchored by the contiguous six-block tract of museums along the west side of Boulevard, including the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and the Virginia Museum of History & Culture, hence the name. It is roughly bounded by the Boulevard (and the Fan District) on the east, I-195 on the west, Monument Avenue and Broad Street on the north, and Carytown on the south. Much of that is listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. Parts of the area had been in active use as farmland into the late 19th century, and though part was notably used as a Civil War veteran's home at that time, it was primarily developed between 1895 and 1940. It is largely populated with townhouses in styles from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Though much of the district is residential, there are several schools, religious facilities, and other institutional uses throughout, as well as local restaurants and stores, especially in the "Devil's Triangle" area Carytown generally serves as the shopping district for the area, and in fact the distinction between Carytown and the Museum District is fairly blurry.The Devil's Triangle is the largest business district in the neighborhood, outside of the streets adjoining Carytown, but there are many small corner stores and restaurants throughout the neighborhood.

The Stonewall Jackson Monument in Richmond, Virginia, was erected in honor of Thomas Jonathon "Stonewall" Jackson, a Confederate general. The monument was located at the centre of the crossing of Monument Avenue and North Arthur Ashe Boulevard, in Richmond, Virginia. The bronze equestrian statue was unveiled in 1919. Along this avenue are other statues including Robert E. Lee, J. E. B. Stewart, Jefferson Davis, Matthew Maury and more recently Arthur Ashe. Thomas Jackson is best known as one of Robert E. Lee's most trusted commanders throughout the early period of the American Civil War between Southern Confederate states and Northern Union states. He rose to prominence after his vital role in the Confederate victory at the First Battle of Bull Run in July 1861, continuing to command troops until his untimely death on May 10, 1863, after falling fatally ill following the amputation of his wounded arm.Several memorials were commissioned in his honor including the statue in Richmond, with perhaps the most well-known the Confederate Memorial Carving at Stone Mountain, commemorating Thomas Jackson, Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis. In Southern states, generals were often revered with statues erected for notable Confederate men at times satisfying a need of the Confederate states to extract virtues from past "heroes" and self-identify with them for the future, perpetuating the Lost Cause mythology. Many of these statues, including the Jackson monument in Richmond, have recently come into controversy in the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd and the renewed attention to Black Lives Matter (BLM) Movement that seeks to more accurately represent history and the racial inequalities black people continue to endure. Jackson's statue along with several others commemorating generals were either torn down by protesters supporting BLM or were removed on the mayor's orders during June and July 2020.
