The Victoria Memorial is a large marble building
in Kolkata, West Bengal, India, which was built between 1906 and 1921. It is
dedicated to the memory of Queen Victoria, then Empress of India, and is now a

The memorial lies on the Maidan (grounds) by the bank of the Hooghly River,
near Jawaharlal Nehru Road (better known as Chowringhee Road).
