Bring Caesar Rodney Home

 

For nearly a century, the Caesar Rodney statue stood proudly in Wilmington's Rodney Square, honoring the Delaware patriot whose legendary overnight ride secured Delaware's vote for American independence. In 2020, the statue was removed and placed into storage. Today, it is temporarily displayed at Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., as part of America's 250th anniversary celebration—but its permanent future remains uncertain.

​

The Caesar Rodney Institute believes Delaware should preserve and proudly display this important piece of our state's history. We invite you to sign the petition and tell us where you believe the statue belongs.

Caesar Rodney Petition

Add your name in support of returning the Caesar Rodney statue to a permanent public location in Delaware—and tell us where you believe it belongs.

Where do you believe the statue should have a permanent home?
Should Delaware provide historical context alongside the statue?
Would you attend a public unveiling if the statue returns to Delaware?

Your voice can help shape the future of one of Delaware's most important historical landmarks. Sign the petition today and help ensure Caesar Rodney's legacy remains part of our state's story for future generations.
