Mon is a possessive meaning "my" in English. It is masculine, so it is followed by a masculine noun (doesn't matter that the owner is male or female). That has no relation with monument which is a word on its own.

In the word "monument," "mon" comes from the Latin root "monere," which means "to remind" or "to warn." This is reflected in the purpose of monuments, which is to remind people of important events, people, or ideas from the past.
