Located within the depths of the historic Fort Canning Hill, the Battlebox is Singapore’s only operational World War II bunker.

Built in 1936 and completed in 1939, the Battlebox served as the headquarters for the defending Allied forces against the invading Japanese army in the final days of the Malayan Campaign (8 Dec 1941 — 15 Feb 1942).
