The Monument to John Cockerill (French: Monument à John Cockerill; Dutch: Monument voor John Cockerill) is a group of statues erected in Brussels, Belgium, in memory of the Belgian-British industrialist John Cockerill, a pioneer of the steel industry and the railways in Belgium in the 19th century, as well as the industrial workers of Belgium.

The monumental group was designed in 1872 by the sculptor Armand Cattier in eclectic style. It stands in the centre of Place du Luxembourg/Luxemburgplein in Ixelles, with its back to the former Brussels-Luxembourg railway station's entrance and to the postmodern buildings of the Espace Léopold, seat of the European Parliament in Brussels.
