The colorful and multicultural city owes its name to the Malacca strait and played an important role on one of the world’s busiest shipping routes. Malacca was an important port where trade was conducted with different countries around the world. The Netherlands has also left a lot of mark on the city in the V.O.C. This is how we see the St. Paul’s Church, first a church for the Portuguese, later a cemetery during the Dutch occupation. The remains of Porta de Santiago, built by the Portuguese as a castle to protect against attacks by the Dutch. The Stadthuys with clear Dutch traits was commissioned by the Dutch governor with the red-colored Christ Church, where you can see the Dutch architectural style even better.
