In 2017 a group of private citizens chose to establish a monument to Sonoma’s frounder, General M. G. Vallejo, by placing a noteworthy and interactive statue of him on the north side of the Sonoma Plaza. The Plaza, which was laid out by the General himself, remains one of his greatest gifts to us. This monument will allow the public – those who live here, as well as those who visit – to see and learn of General Vallejo and his legacy. It will consist of a life-sized bronze likeness of General Vallejo seated on a bench, gazing at the former site of his original home in Sonoma.
