Hall of Memory
The Hall of Memory opened in 1925 and stands as a memorial to the men and women of Birmingham who gave their lives in the First World War, the Second World War and in active service since 1945.
The Hall of Memory was built in white Portland Stone and is surrounded by large, seated bronze figures sculpted by Albert Toft, representing the services (Army, Navy, Air Force and Women’s Services). Inside, resting on a large marble tomb is a bronze casket displaying the Roll of Honour. Steps lead up to it, and the books can be viewed up close. High up the walls, there are three sculpted panels by William Bloye showing soldiers joining up, in the firing line and returning wounded.
The doors to the Hall of Memory will be open from 10am-4pm. Information sheets available.
The Hall of Memory is currently not wheelchair accessible.
