A journey into Singapore’s past begins at The Fullerton Heritage precinct, where the Singapore story finds its birth. Walk in the footsteps of our forefathers through the historic precinct.
THE FULLERTON MONUMENT TOUR
Like all great destinations, The Fullerton Building has a great story to tell. Standing majestically at the mouth of the Singapore River, the Fullerton Building witnessed the transformation of Singapore from a colonial outpost to a first-world metropolis.
Let our resident guide take you back in time to 1928 when the story of the Fullerton Building first began. As “Mile Zero”, from which all of Singapore was measured, the historical building had famously hosted the General Post Office – known then as the “Most Important Post Office in the East.” It was also here where Singapore pioneer leaders made decisions that steered the course of the nation, propelling Singapore into first-world status.
Discover the rich history of our newly minted National Monument and gain exclusive access to preserved areas within The Fullerton Hotel Singapore.

A MARITIME JOURNEY TOUR

Find yourself captivated by stories of how the forefathers of Singapore first stepped ashore on our soil via Clifford Pier. Go deeper and uncover events centred on the pier – from speedboat chases at Customs House, to the small but iconic Fullerton Waterboat House providing water supplies to big ships anchored offshore.
