Changi Chapel and Museum
Changi Chapel and Museum tells the stories of people held in the Changi area during the Second World War. It is a reflective museum visit, separate from the operating prison.
Why go
The replica chapel and personal artefacts bring the experiences of wartime internees into focus. Paintings, photographs and objects donated by former prisoners give the history human scale. Spend time with those accounts rather than treating Changi as a quick photo stop or confusing the museum with Changi Prison Complex.
What to look for
A replica chapel anchors the museum's remembrance of wartime captivity.
Personal artefacts and images tell individual internee stories.
Useful to know
Go to Changi Chapel and Museum, not the operating prison, for the visitor exhibition.
Leave enough time to read the personal accounts at a measured pace.
