Haymarket Martyrs' Monument — photo spot in 863 Des Plaines Ave, Forest Park, IL 60130, USA
Haymarket Martyrs' Monument
A tall granite obelisk and sculpted figures in Forest Home Cemetery honoring Haymarket martyrs—strong vertical lines, weathered stone and surrounding graves create moody, historic images. Best at golden hour or blue hour for warm side light and long shadows; overcast days emphasize texture. Public cemetery with free access and roadside parking on Des Plaines Ave; expect quiet weekdays, busier on weekends. Respectful behavior required—it's an active cemetery and important labor-history site.
