The Indian Heritage Centre (Tamil: இந்திய மரபுடமை நிலையம்) is a cultural centre and museum in Singapore that showcases the culture, heritage and history of Indian Singaporeans. Located at the Campbell Lane thoroughfare in the Little India precinct, the 3,090 square metres (33,300 sq ft) centre was launched on 7 May 2015.

The facade's architectural style is influenced by the baoli (or Indian stepwell), to seek an appreciation of the Indian culture.
