Information
Chulalongkorn University Memorial Hall collects documents and items which are valuable for Chulalongkorn University, as well as a number of important documents. In 1966, Prof. Dr. Kasem Suwannakul, the President of Chulalongkorn University, assigned Associate Prof. Boonyawat Weesakul to collect additional documents and artifacts. It took 2 years to collect the items and renovate the Chakrabongse Building, which was once the office of the Student Union and the Students Administrative Board, to be the exhibition venue. The hall is to be a source of researching about the history of higher education and the history of Chulalongkorn University. There are exhibits on the royal biography of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V), as well as the history and the legacy of Chulalongkorn University in various aspects through photos, souvenirs and sculptures of Chulalongkorn University's former Presidents. These items are all displayed on the 2nd floor of the Chakrabongse Building (the location of Chulalongkorn University Memorial Hall). While the lower floor displays traveling exhibitions on important occasions of the university.
