Alight at the bus stop at the Changi Museum (after Women's Prison / opposite Changi Heights condominium)

In honouring the spirit and commitment of those who rose from the depths of adversity, the Museum inspires future generations to come and deepen their appreciation of the heroic and inspirational stories that unfolded in Changi during the war. The Changi Museum is dedicated to all those who lived and died in Singapore, in particular the Changi area, during the dark years of World War II.

Changi Museum has relatively collected nearly 5,000 records of registered Civilian Internees that was interned in Singapore during the Japanese Occupation in 1942-1945. Changi Museum has now offered an online search database. Families and friends are now able to search for information on their love ones online.

We have provided three categories for you to make your search easy and efficient. All you will need to do is to key in the name, nationality or profession of the civilian and it will redirect you to a   list of name/s based on the database.

We hope the ability to search this record collection may enhance your understanding of your family or friends that was involved during the WWII.

If you have further enquiries pertaining to this matter, do email us at changi_museum@pacific.net.sg

Through documentation of significant events of the Japanese Occupation, the Museum also serves as an important educational institution and resource centre. As for the Prisoners-of-War (POWs) and their families, it is a site that allows for closure of the many emotional scars inflicted by the war years.

The Changi Museum was relocated to its new home on 15 February 2001 and was officially opened by our Trade and Industry Minister BG George Yeo. This date was also chosen to coincide with the 59th Anniversary of the fall of Singapore to the Japanese in 1942. The new Changi Museum replaces the Old Changi Prison Chapel and Museum (built in 1988) that was relocated to its current site to make way for the expansion of Changi Prison.
