The Former Attorney General's Chambers is a historic building at 1 Parliament Place, Singapore. Built in the Edwardian style in 1906, the two-storey civic building occupies the site of the former one-storey Court House Annexe, which was built in 1839 and later enlarged to house the Government Printing Office.

In the post-independent years, the building housed the Public Works Department from the 1960s to 1971, and from 1971 to 1991 the Attorney-General's Chambers. Today it is known as Parliament House Block C, being part of the Parliament House Complex. It was gazetted as a National Monument of Singapore on 14 February, 1992.
