Rediscover Singapore - Former Ford Factory


The Old Ford Motor Factory is located along Upper Bukit Timah Road, it is the place where the British Forces surrender to the Japanese on the 15th February 1942 after the battle of Singapore and had since been gazetted as a National Monument in 2006 and converted as an exhibition and archives named  Memories of Old Fort Factory. The gallery was originally known as the Syonan Gallery: War and Its Legacies which was dropped due to the public outcry for the use of the word Syonan. The World War II exhibition was reopened under the new name Surviving the Japanese Occupation on 15th February 2017.
