The Chesed-El Synagogue (Hebrew: חסד-אל, "Grace of God") is a synagogue in Singapore. The synagogue was constructed in 1905 and is located at Oxley Rise in River Valley, within the Central Area of Singapore.

On 18 December 1998, it was designated as a national monument of Singapore.[1]

History[edit]

The Chesed-El Synagogue was designated as a national monument on 18 December 1998.[2]

The synagogue underwent an extensive renovation in 2016 with the support of the National Heritage Board (NHB) of Singapore.[3]

A Jewish Community Centre was built on the Synagogue grounds, where the communal Sukkah used to stand. In 2019, the synagogue received its fourth grant from the restoration fund of the NHB for restoration and maintenance of the building.[3]
