Singapore Philatelic Museum

This museum is a treat for both stamp and non-stamp collectors. Collectors will be enchanted with the fine collection of stamps, local and international, and first day covers housed in this quaint building dating back to 1907. For non-collectors, the museum is a showcase for the rich and enduring traditions and cultures of multi-ethnic Singapore captured on stamps, postcards and visuals. The intricate process leading to a stamp issue - from artwork through printing plates and progressive sheets to the final product - are vividly illustrated through exhibits, interactive games and hands-on activities. Visitors may request for pre-arranged tours by phone.
