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.
