Church of the Sacred Heart, Singapore, Roman Catholic church in Museum Planning Area, Singapore

The French Baroque style church building on Tank Road features two storeys with a prominent spire adding two additional levels to its structure.

The church endured substantial damage from Japanese artillery fire in February 1942, requiring extensive repairs to its ceiling, pews, and interior fittings.

The church was founded to serve Cantonese and Hakka-speaking Catholics, with three wealthy Chinese benefactors providing substantial funding for its construction.

Fort Canning MRT Station, located 450 meters from the church, provides the most direct public transportation access for visitors and congregation members.

The church includes two side altars with life-size statues of Our Lady of Lourdes and St Joseph, created by sculptors from Paris.
