Fort Canning - Fort Gate & Gothic Gates

"A remnant of the fortress that once occupied Fort Canning Hill from 1861 to 1926, Fort Gate was built in 1846. It served two purposes – to protect Singapore from a sea-borne attack and to give the country's European population a refuge should a local disturbance arise.

On the other side of Fort Gate are two imposing Gothic Gates at the entrance of Fort Canning Green, which was once a Christian burial ground. Above both Gothic Gates are the letters "IHS" which stand for Iota Eta Sigma, the first three letters of the Greek word for Jesus."
