Eurasian Heritage Gallery

A small but informative gallery that offers a good introduction to Eurasian heritage and Singapore’s multicultural society. Easy to understand exhibits and a meaningful learning experience about different races and cultures. 👍

Such an amazing place to discover Eurasian roots and the olden days Singapore. It’s like a mini museum but it has quite a myriad of artefacts. It is well worth a visit!

Enriching experience in a well maintained charming building with knowledgeable tour guide.

It is a cozy place to dine in as you don't feel like in Singapore.

First time here. A quiet place with comprehensive information you need to know about Eurasian community. Lot of interesting fun facts. There is a restaurant on the ground floor serving Eurasian food but I didn’t have time to try it. Maybe next time.

I would have given 4.5 stars for the exhibition but we had the strangest experience upon entering which in fact deserves one star. The female at the counter assumed I was a foreigner (foreigners pay a small sum to enter). I told her I was PR and my daughter a citizen. Instead of politely asking for my ID she very roughly demanded “show me” twice. I wanted a nice experience for my 8yo daughter so I complied without fuss. She then turned to my young girl and said she must pay. I was confused. I repeated that my daughter was a local Singaporean but she refused to believe me. It’s only when my Singaporean husband entered that she backed down. Nice introduction to the Eurasian community! Unfortunately they no longer have an activity book/pack for children so I hope if they read this they’ll reintroduce one as the children would gain far more from the actual exhibition. As for the exhibit itself, it’s quite good though a little crammed with information but I understand space is a constraint. Would recommend if you’re combining a trip with the gorgeous downstairs Eurasian restaurant “Quentins” which my family and I love. Otherwise, given the odd reception by that woman, I’d give the exhibit a miss.

Absolutely loved the gallery! Quite small and located on the floors above, there is a lot of history packed into such a small place. I was fascinated by all the memorabilia and stories about the western influence on Singapore. I was even amazed to find my own surname which is quite localised to where I am from displayed amongst the collection with a coat of arms and the reference used which influenced the naming of a street. I spent about 30 mins although could have easily spent an hour going through all of the gallery.
