Church of Saints Peter and Paul

The history of the Church of Saints Peter and Paul is connected to the start and eventual growth of the Chinese Catholic Community within Singapore.

The church was constructed around 1869 to 1870 and was built by the Chinese Catholic Mission which serves a congregation for all Chinese Catholic groups. In addition, the church was also visited by European missionaries who wanted to learn the Chinese or Mandarin language before they would proceed to head over to different areas to preach.
