The Victoria Memorial in Kolkata was built between 1906 and 1921 in memory of Queen Victoria (1837-1901), the British monarch who held the title of Empress of India. There are no major monuments in India specifically called 'King George Memorial', 'King Richard Memorial', or 'Prince of Wales Memorial' - though some 'Prince of Wales' museums exist (like in Mumbai), the Victoria Memorial is the most prominent royal memorial.
