Slated to open in 2028, the Founders’ Memorial will commemorate the values and ideals exemplified by Singapore’s first generation leaders, as well as other key personalities who played important roles in Singapore’s path to independence, and in the early years of Singapore’s nation-building process. The Memorial’s narrative will take a values-driven approach, which continues to be informed through engagement with Singaporeans.

Envisioned as an integrated gallery and gardens experience at the Bay East Garden, the Memorial aims to both commemorate how independent Singapore came to be, and inspire Singaporeans to commit themselves to building the nation’s future, together.
