Il Monumento a James A. Garfield si trova nella rotatoria tra First Street S.W. e Maryland Avenue, nell'area del Campidoglio a Washington, D.C. È un memoriale dedicato al Presidente James A. Garfield, eletto nel 1880 e, dopo solo 4 mesi in carica, assassinato nel 1881 da Charles J. Guiteau.
Il monumento, modellato da John Quincy Adams Ward e fuso dalla Henry-Bonnard Co. di New York, si erge su una base progettata da Richard Morris Hunt ed è un esempio straordinario della scultura americana Beaux-Arts. Fu inaugurato il 12 maggio 1887. Oggi fa parte, insieme al Peace Monument e all'Ulysses S. Grant Memorial, di un gruppo di monumenti a tre pezzi vicino al Capitol Reflecting Pool.
