Summary edit

Description
English: The Thomas Jefferson Memorial built in 1943 honoring the third President of the United States, Author of the Declaration of American Independence and of the Statute of Virginia for religious freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia. Built in a style that Jefferson himself used for Monticello and the University of Virginia. A circular domed design based upon the Pantheon in Rome, which Jefferson believed to be a perfect model of a circular building. By using a design that Jefferson himself was inspired by, the memorial itself would harbor feelings of freedom and independence. The memorial stands as a symbol and as a reminder to the very things that Jefferson wanted for this country: equality, education, liberty, freedom, and independence.
