# Vision of Peace *Sculpture in the combined Saint Paul City Hall and Ramsey County Courthouse, Saint Paul, Minnesota* *Vision of Peace* is a 60-ton, 38-foot onyx sculpture by [[Carl Milles]] in the combined Saint Paul City Hall and Ramsey County Courthouse in Saint Paul, [[Minnesota]].[^1] The work was originally titled "Indian God of Peace" and was later given its present name.[^1] The record shows both titles. It does not establish when the renaming took place or who requested it, because no official source located confirms either point.[^1] The project lists that gap as at-issue pair AI-Ramsey-035. The pair is anchored to a March 2025 presidential action on information silos.[^2] ## What The combined city hall and county courthouse that houses the sculpture was completed in 1932 for $4 million.[^1] The Milles sculpture inside it is carved in onyx, weighs 60 tons and stands 38 feet tall.[^1] It first carried the title "Indian God of Peace" and was afterwards renamed *Vision of Peace*. The date of the change and the party that sought it are not confirmed in any official source located.[^1] ## In the at-issue record - **Ramsey package, pair AI-Ramsey-035 (rank 35, Tier II, "The Name on the Courthouse"):** The pair records the sculpture's original and later titles. It also states that neither the renaming date nor the requesting party is confirmed in any official source located.[^1] It is anchored to the White House action *Stopping Waste, Fraud, and Abuse by Eliminating Information Silos*. The pair gives its reason for that anchor as "an undocumented renaming inside the building that holds the county's records".[^2] The record does not establish that the order addresses this sculpture or this building.[^2] ## Notes [^1]: Minnesota wiki at-issue record, *Ramsey package, pair AI-Ramsey-035* (Tier II, rank 35; drawn from *Warren E. Burger Apex Dossier* §VI, 2026-09-02) — establishes the building, its 1932 completion and $4 million cost, the sculpture's maker, material, weight and height, its original and later titles, and the absence of an official source for the renaming date or requesting party. The pair's underlying sources (en.wikipedia.org; ramseycountymn.gov) are not among the record's citable URLs.
