The Changi chapel and museum is adjacent to Singapore's current Changi prison. The photos and artefacts bring this grim chapter of Singapore's past to life. It's worth visiting to get a better understanding of Singapore's history.

A moving experience which was aided by the robot guide Temmi who provided us with a first person history of an inmate. Sensitively and carefully archived, the historical details cannot but touch the soul. I was so touched by the stories of the Australians and their amazing tenacity in keeping spirits up through their sports and intellectual endeavours.

It really depends upon your level of interest. If you're after a quick overview, a guided tour might be best. I managed to get on the back of one that had just started, but quickly decided I wanted to explore it at my own pace. It is well laid out, with informative displays, including touchscreen presentations. I learned quite a bit, and it was interesting to read / hear accounts from people who were there. I think I was in there for about 2 hours.

Tried tore book last night but there was problems trying to do so ( their website not me). We turned up on the off chance this morning and had a lovey tour with a very informative robot called TEMI. She was delightful and very clever. If you got in her way she went around you. Her only negative was she gave you the information about each area and then only gave you two minutes to look around that area before moving on. After her tour was finished and she had parked herself back in her charging portal we went around again and caught up on the things we’d missed. The museum and chapel are extremely well planned and there were many moving stories and articles on show. I would highly recommend this experience. If you’re feeling brave then go by underground train and the number 2 bus. It’s so easy to find. There is no parking there and a taxi would make it expensive. We really enjoyed our train and bus journey.

A very sad & moving experience . The hardships & privations that these men,women & children suffered is hard to comprehend. The conditions they had to put up with were horrendous. Yet through all that, they kept their spirits up & looked to the future. Sadly, so, so many did not make it. I highly recommend the Changi Chapel & Museum for a must see, to pay respect to all those prisoners. The Chapel & Museum is a place of quiet reflection. “We will remember them”

This must have been one of the most humbling war memorials I have visited. It is totally non-judgemental and deals with the facts of what took place without apportioning blame as everyone knows where that lies. The museum is well laid out and explains the history of Changi jail prior to its notoriety. The artefacts displayed paint a poignant picture of what life was like for the residents both military and civilian. It highlights the difficulties they faced and how they were overcome or how they managed on a daily basis. The chapel would be a haven of hope and belief for those residents. Everything is well kept clean and tidy and the credit must go to the Singapore government in ensuring this museum remains open and as a reminder of what took place. The staff at the museum couldn’t be more helpful especially Ithin, who went out of his way to ensure our visit was successful and out technology worked with the different display rooms. There are databases with all the known prisoners who were interned there. The information on how to get there is well detailed on the website. There is a cafe next door which serves food and drink after your visit.

This museum is on the smaller side for many others that we have been to. Somewhere in between a monument and museum perhaps. It is small and well laid out, with interesting information and places of reflection throughout. It won't take you to long to stroll through the entire exhibit, even reading everything or taking one of their walking tours (with a robot!). Given it's size it is also a very reasonable entry fee. The venue is out of town, but the staff will happily call you a taxi and there is a café on site.

This is a small museum and took about an hour to look around. There is a lot to read so I wouldn’t go with kids - I went alone to this one. It’s very quiet and contemplative place with lots of interesting facts that I wasn’t aware of. I found the resilience of the people who were interned there during the war inspiring. It is a good way out from the city. Take the number 2 bus and take in the sights.

The museum was very interesting, giving an insight into the lives of the prisoners of the Japanese. It was fascinating to read about all the various industries within the prison community, and how resourceful they were in captivity. We didn’t have a guide, but just went round at our own pace.
