Holwell's Monument at Calcutta, 1905

The Holwell's monument was in memory of the
146 British prisoners. Who were thrown in a small room called the Black Hole. Only 23 were found
alive in this 18x14 feet guard room including
John Holwell.
The rest of them died because of
extreme suffocation and heat. Holwell later became the Governor of Bengal in 1760.
He built a monument in memory of the victims of the terrible incident in 1756. But by 1822 the
Holwell's monument in Kolkata disappeared.
Lord Curzon the Viceroy of India realized there was
nothing to mark the Black Hole, and on his orders erected an obelisk at the southwest corner of the
Writer's building. Which is shown in this photo postcard. During the height of the Indian independence movement in 1940, this monument was removed to its present location at the compound of St John's Church.
