Originally opening in 1849 as the Raffles Library & Museum, the National Museum of Singapore is the country's oldest museum; striving to inspire visitors just as it has since its mid-19th century origins, today the museum features an engaging and thought-provoking mixture of exhibitions related to the history, life and art of Singapore.
