The Hall of Memory is an Art Deco war memorial in Centenary Square, Birmingham, England, designed by S. N. Cooke and W. N. Twist. Built of Portland stone from the Isle of Portland, Dorset, it was erected between 1922 and 1925 by John Barnsley and Son over a filled-in canal basin. It commemorates the 12,320 Birmingham citizens who died in the First World War, and its interior holds three bas-relief plaques by William Bloye. The building was upgraded to Grade I listing in 2014.
