Background: Every monument erected has a meaning and symbol. The meaningfulness of a wait is related to its culture. Cultural signs are visualized through symbols in the form of monuments. Cultural meaning through symbols is an integral part of the cultural journey. In the past, the monument was embodied in the form of an inscription attached to a complete unity in the temple building.

The monuments that stand in each city are a reflection of cultural meanings and symbols Purpose: This study aims to read the text of the monument in meaning and symbol. Design and methods: The research method uses a semiotic approach. Data collection techniques are carried out through literature. Data analysis techniques are carried out through analysis descriptions. The subject of research is several monuments in the city of Cianjur. Results: The results of the analysis of the monuments in the city of Cianjur show that all existing monuments are symbols of Cianjur as a city producing tauco, a city that has a maos culture, agricultural culture in the form of a pandan wangi monument.
