The Elephant Statue, bronze monument, stands outside the High Street entrance of Parliament House, located in the downtown core of the central region. It was given by Thailand's King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) to commemorate his 1871 visit, the first by a Thai monarch. The statue originally stood in front of Victoria Memorial Hall when it was erected on 25 June 1872. In 1919, when Sir Stamford Raffles' statue was put in its place for Singapore's Centenary Celebrations, the Elephant Statue was moved to the Court House (later the Assembly House, now Old Parliament House or Arts House).
