Changi Chapel and Museum, Singapore Overview
Changi Museum tells the story of the 50,000 civilians and prisoners of war held in Changi between 1942 and 1945, largely through what they left behind: letters, drawings, a Morse transmitter hidden in a broom. The replica chapel in the courtyard stands for the ones they built themselves. Allow an hour and a half. It is the one place on this list that will change the mood of your day, so plan what comes after it.
Narrating the story of sufferings of Singapore under the attack of Japanese soldiers, the Changi Chapel and Museum displays the profound fear of WWII. The museum houses the photographs, personal objects, letters that are now proof to the incarceration of more than 50,000 civilians and soldiers in Changi Prison. Right in the middle of the museum in the open-air courtyard is the Changi Chapel, a replica of several other chapels that were built during WWII. The monument symbolizes the refusal of Japanese rule by the people of Singapore. One can hire a guide or take an audio guide for a better understanding of Changi prisoners' wartime experiences.
