Public Square, the oldest place in Cleveland, serves as the heart of the city, with monuments erected in honor of some of America’s most historic events. Amongst them is the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, depicting the unnecessary evils that were the Civil War. As poignant a message the monument conveys, it’s the tunnels below it that harbor the real horror of this deadly time.
