About this venue
The San Jacinto Monument, at 570 feet, is one of the finest examples of Moderne (Art Deco) architecture in the United States. Today, the world's tallest war memorial provides a historically rich and unique location to host the party of the century or an intimate gathering. Our private event spaces set the scene for your corporate receptions, weddings, or nonprofit fundraisers. The Battleground site offers a serene backdrop to make your next event one to remember. From the grand oaks trees to the reflection pool, you and your guests will be surrounded by history. The spacious grounds can accommodate small to large groups without feeling crowded.
