Statue
of Juan Seguin
TE Photo - day of unveiling - October 28, 2000 |
An
Equestrian statue of Juan Seguin was unveiled on Saturday, October
28, 2000. The detailed bronze was still hot enough for Seguin Town
Historian Charley Eckhardt to (respectfully) light a cigar from it.
Mr. Eckhardt, who was giving us a personal walking tour of Seguin,
took time out to call our attention to details in Mr. Seguin's equipment
that we certainly would have missed. We have no details on the foundry,
cost or how long this project was in the works, but will be glad to
include more on this newest addition to Texas' bronze pantheon as
the information becomes available to us. Juan Seguin's grave is here
in Seguin as well.
