     Fort Siloso

 

 

  Fort Siloso is the only preserved British coastal fortification in Singapore. A recreation of life at the fort, presented through the use of archival documents and footage, life-sized figures of soldiers and simulated firing of guns, provides a unique chance to look into Singapore's colonial past.

  History of Fort Siloso - Built in the 1880s on Sentosa's western end, Fort Siloso protected the western entrance to Singapore's harbour. During World War II, the guns of Fort Siloso engaged Japanese forces in the Battle for Singapore, even firing landwards in support of the British forces.
