The Jeath War Museum is located in the grounds of a temple at the junction of the Kwai Yai and Kwai Noi Rivers (about 3 Kilometres downstream from the bridge). This museum is an acronym for the primary nations which participated in local action. These nations are: Japan, England, Australia, Thailand and Holland. The museum inside Wat Chai Chumphon has been constructed largely in the form of an Allied Prisoner of War camp which is managed by a Thai monk. The thatched detention hut with cramped, elevated bamboo bunks contains photographic, pictorial and physical memorabilia dating from the Second World War.
