What is the oldest Dutch building in Asia?
The Stadthuys. The vast, red Stadthuys was erected between 1641–1660 and is the oldest Dutch building in the East. Once the city hall, it is now home to the History and Ethnography Museum which tells the story of Malacca's journey from Malay Sultanate to colonial European town.

The sultan of Johore had, perhaps naïvely, expected the Dutch to turn over Malacca to his control, but found that the port had simply traded one master for another.
