The Stadthuys
A massive bright terracotta-red riverfront building that was once the official residence of Dutch governors and officers, The Stadthuys is believed to be the oldest-surviving Dutch building in the East. Built between 1641 and 1660 on the ruins of a Portuguese fort, The Stadthuys of Malacca was the focal point of several successive European governments for over 300 years, from its completion until 1980.
