We were in San Jose for lunch and stopped by to see the two men on horseback. This is a very small park - easy to see from the road. It is called Pellier Historical Park.

We often drive by to see again the historical statue called Pellier Historical Park. Its close the high rise condominium area.

Wlhen in the San Jose area, I went to and saw this statue of the horsemen. Its a very small park in the downtown area.

I found this on Trip Advisor. It is one of those obscure sites and not clear of the facts. The city web site says it is at Julian Street and St. James Street, which is really a Y at Notre Dame Avenue. The city map shows it near Julian and 2nd, a few blocks northeast. I think two sites are being confused. Unless you are a fan of equestrian statues, there isn't much point in visiting the St. James/Notre Dame site which is a concrete median in the street, about twenty feet wide and two hundred feet long with the two horse and rider statues at one end. I read of prune trees and the city web site says it is two tenths of an acre, there is no vegetation at the statues. There was no plaque or information that I could see. It was late Saturday afternoon and I found street parking just around the corner. Maybe I will try again if I’m in town again.

other than the statue of Thomas Fallon. The park itself is very small and the history on the statue is more interesting than the park.
