St Joseph’s Church - Victoria Street 3.69

With the promulgation of the decree dated 26th June 1981 by the Most Reverend Gregory Yong, Archbishop of Singapore, the 95-year old double judisdiction in the state of Singapore came to an end with effect from 1st July of the same year. The main change effecting St Joseph’s Church as a result of the promulgation, besides the transfer of the jurisdiction of about 7,000 parishioners to the Archdiocese of Singapore, was the cessation of St Joseph’s as a parish. It then became a Church of Devotion.

On 14th January 2005, in recognition of its rich history and social and cultural importance, especially to the Eurasian community, St Joseph’s Church was gazetted as a National Monument by the National Heritage Board of Singapore.
