DCU Center

60-foot (18-m) monument built in 1874 in honor of Worcester's Civil War dead.

Soldiers' Monument

Is known to locals as "Turtle-Boy". The fountain features a boy and a turtle engaged in what any reasonable observer would have to conclude is an obscene -- or at least nonconsensual -- act. Not many, if any, people know what it truly represents, so judge for yourself.

Burnside Fountain

Built in 1928 as the Plymouth Theater, this popular venue holds about 2500 for concerts. The Palladium holds a variety of acts, but the majority are metal/rock.

Palladium
