The statue was conceived in the midst of the Risorgimento to commemorate the fallen of the Ten Days of Brescia and was executed by the sculptor Giovanni Battista Lombardi with full funding from Vittorio Emanuele II. The inauguration took place in 1864 and the new monument still occupies the north-eastern portion of the square today.
