Stadthuys

The Stadthuys is the red former town hall on Dutch Square in Malacca, built by the Dutch around 1650 as the office of the governor and his deputy and later used by the British administration. With the neighbouring clock tower and Christ Church it forms the Red Square, and it now houses the History and Ethnography Museum.
