Changi Hospital

Changi Hospital, Former military hospital in Changi, Singapore.

Description

The complex consists of multiple connected blocks displaying colonial architecture with extended corridors, tall windows and deteriorating rooms where remnants of medical equipment and graffiti-covered surfaces document the advancing decay since abandonment in the late 1990s.

History

British colonial authorities established the medical facility in 1935 as part of military infrastructure, Japanese forces converted it into a detention center operated by the Kempeitai during World War II, and it subsequently served the Royal Air Force before transfer to Singapore Armed Forces until closure in 1997.

Culture

The facility holds a prominent place in Singapore's ghost stories, with local accounts describing unexplained phenomena that have turned the buildings into a recurring subject of horror media and inspired commercial haunted attractions, drawing interest from those fascinated by paranormal claims.

Practical

The facility on Halton Road in Changi district near the airport remains closed to unauthorized visitors with security monitoring the grounds, though licensed operators organize guided tours for approximately 85 US dollars (85 Singapore dollars) per person.

Did you know?

Several redevelopment proposals over the years, including a luxury spa resort that collapsed during economic downturn, have failed to materialize, leaving the site in its current state of decay that continues to draw urban explorers interested in abandoned architecture.
