Equestrian statue of Caesar Rodney

Wilmington, Italy

A statue of Founding Father Caesar Rodney, in Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., was initially installed in Wilmington, Delaware, in Rodney Square on July 4, 1923. It was designed by New York sculptor James Edward Kelly. The Gorham Company in Rhode Island cast the statue and its two bronze plaques.

The statue was removed from public view during the George Floyd protests in 2020. In May 2026, the statue was relocated to Freedom Plaza.
