ACM is Singapore’s national museum of Asian antiquities and decorative art.
As the only museum in Asia with a pan-Asian scope, ACM is devoted to exploring the rich artistic heritage of Asia through our outstanding collection of masterpieces, and through ground-breaking special exhibitions.
The Asian Civilisations Museum is iconically along the Singapore River. The museum traces its roots to the Raffles Museum, founded in the middle of the 19th century. Asian Civilisations Museum focuses on the many historical connections between cultures and civilisations in Asia, and between Asia and the world.
Singapore’s history as a port city that brought people together from all over the world is used as a means of examining the history of Asia. Objects on display tell stories of the trade and the exchange of ideas that were the result of international commerce, as well as the flow of religions and faith through Asia.
