The title compound, C6H10N22+·2Cl−, contains a network of 4-(ammoniomethyl)pyridinium cations and chloride anions which are interconnected by N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is also influenced by intermolecular π–π stacking interactions between identical antiparallel organic cations with a face-to-face distance of ca 3.52 Å.
