The Stadthuys Malacca

stadthuys melaka
The Stadthuys, pronounced "Stad-Haus" means town hall. It is one of the most prominent buildings in Melaka. Visitors can never miss this bright salmon pink piece of Dutch architecture.

The Dutch left their Red Building , the Stadthuys as a landmark when they captured Melaka in 1614. The Stadthuys now houses the History Museum and Ethnography Museum. On display are traditional bridal costumes and relics from Melaka's 400 year history.
