The first of its kind in Southeast Asia, the Heritage Conservation Centre (HCC) is a state-of-the-art climatically controlled facility housing the cultural treasures of Singapore owned by NHB.

Singapore’s first centralised heritage conservation facility stores over 108,000 artefacts, and has conservation laboratories specially fitted for the treatment of artefacts like textiles, paper, paintings, and three-dimensional objects.

HCC plays a leading role in heritage preservation in Singapore. It sets and maintains high professional standards of heritage preservation, conducts guided tours, workshops and lectures to promote a greater awareness of heritage preservation.
