NGC 2326 is a barred spiral galaxy in the Lynx constellation. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 6062 ± 11 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 291.6 ± 20.4 Mly (89.41 ± 6.26 Mpc).[1] It was discovered by William Herschel on 9 February 1788.[3] Its apparent magnitude is 14.3 [2] and its size is 2.71 arc minutes.[2] It is located near NGC 2326A.

The SIMBAD database lists NGC 2326 as a radio galaxy, i.e. it has giant regions of radio emission extending well beyond its visible structure.[4]

One supernova has been observed in NGC 2326. SN 2023pgb (type II, mag. 17.4) was discovered on 12 August 2023 by the Zwicky Transient Facility.[5]
