Armenian Heritage Gallery

Armenian Heritage Gallery stands beside the Armenian Church on Hill Street in Singapore, inside a renovated parsonage building. The church is a national monument and anchors Singapore’s Armenian community.

Opened in May 2018, the gallery forms part of Asia’s first integrated Armenian cultural and heritage centre. Rare artefacts, books, photographs, and contemporary objects trace Armenian communities across Singapore, Asia, Armenia, and wider communities worldwide. Interactive displays follow their settlement, achievements, and continuing presence in Singapore and Asia. A museum, library, small gift shop, and periodic travelling exhibitions extend the visit beyond the main collection.

The church grounds include a memorial garden with distinctive tombstones commemorating Armenians who shaped Singapore’s history. Agnes Joaquim, who hybridised Singapore’s national flower, rests among the figures remembered there.
