Famous for its red-painted buildings, the Dutch Square is clear testimony of Dutch masonry and architectural skills. The Stadthuys, situated in the Square, is believed to have been completed in 1650 and was home to the Dutch governors. Now, it has become the Malacca Historical Museum. Also within the vicinity is Queen Victoria's fountain that was erected in 1901 to commemorate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Next to it is the Malacca Clock Tower, built in 1886 by Tan Jiak Kim. Admission Free.
