The Confederate War Memorial was a 65 foot (20 m)-high monument that pays tribute to soldiers and sailors from Texas who served with the Confederate States of America (CSA) during the American Civil War. The monument was dedicated in 1897, following the laying of its cornerstone the previous year. Originally located in Sullivan Park (later renamed Old City Park) near downtown Dallas, Texas, United States, the monument was relocated in 1961 to the nearby Pioneer Park Cemetery in the Convention Center District, next to the Dallas Convention Center and Pioneer Plaza. After the wave of removal of Confederate monuments in 2017, the City of Dallas convened a task force to decide what to do with the memorial and the statue of Robert E. Lee in Lee Park. In February 2019, the Dallas City Council approved removal of the Confederate War Memorial, but the planned removal was later blocked by the Fifth Court of Appeals of Texas. In June 2020, amid widespread George Floyd protests and destruction and removal of other Confederate monuments, the court granted an order allowing the city to remove the monument and place it in storage. The monument was removed later the same month.

The last person was interred in the cemetery in 1921.Originally located in Old City Park, the Confederate War Memorial was moved to Pioneer Park Cemetery in 1961 to accommodate construction of R.L. Thornton Freeway. The Dallas City Council approved removal of the monument in February 2019 but the effort was blocked by a state appeals court. In June 2020, during nationwide George Floyd protests, the appeals court approved the immediate removal of the monument to prevent injury to protesters during potential attempts to topple it, and it was removed later that month for storage at the Grand Prairie Armed Forces Reserve Complex.
