| Data Info |
The original bronze statue of Raffles was created by Thomas Woolner in 1887 and placed at the centre of the Padang.
In 1919, on the centenary of Singapore's founding, it was relocated to the front of the Victoria Memorial Hall and Theatre. In 1969, on the 150th anniversary of the founding, in addition to this bronze Raffles statue, the government erected another, a white replica beside the old Parliament House, by the Singapore River. |
