Parliamentary War Memorial, World War I memorial at Palace of Westminster, United Kingdom.
The Parliamentary War Memorial features stone panels with names of fallen members from both Houses of Parliament and their sons beneath a gothic window.
Unveiled in 1922, the memorial lists 22 House of Commons members, 20 House of Lords members, and 9 senior staff who died during World War I.
The memorial includes bronze statuettes representing patron saints of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, symbolizing national unity during wartime sacrifices.
