THE ARTS HOUSE AT THE OLD PARLIAMENT
The Old Parliament House at Empress Place was where the Singapore Parliament used to sit. Built originally as a residence in 1827, it is probably the oldest surviving structure and the oldest government building in Singapore. However, after a series of major alterations and additions, possibly only the arches inside the porch are all that remains of the original building. The main building and the annex building were gazetted as national monuments on 14 February 1992 and 26 June 1992, respectively, and now serve as an arts venue called The Arts House.
