Memorial to the Engine Room Heroes of the Titanic, Maritime memorial at Pier Head, Liverpool, England

The granite obelisk rises 48 feet tall with sculpted figures of stokers and engineers on its east and west faces at St Nicholas Place.

The memorial was funded by international subscription and unveiled in 1916 to honor the 32 engineers who perished during the Titanic disaster.

The monument features life-size sculptures of working-class maritime laborers, marking a shift from traditional subjects in British public monuments.

The memorial stands near the Liverpool waterfront, displaying visible marks from World War II bombs that fell during the Liverpool Blitz.

Four classical elements decorate the base corners, while a gilded flame crowns the obelisk that commemorates marine engine room sacrifices.
