Monument is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Centre County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is part of the State College, Pennsylvania Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 150 at the 2010 census.[3]
The economy of Monument was heavily dependent on the brick-works that Harbison-Walker Refractories built in approximately 1901. This produced refractory bricks, used to line furnaces. The brick-works closed in May 1953.
