MARITIME MUSEUM
The museum is constructed after 'Flor
De La Mar'. The Portuguese galleon sank
in the Straits of Malacca on its way to
Portugal. With her hull laden with invaluable
treasures seized from Malacca, the galleon

the efforts to revive its symbolic significance
to Malacca's heritage. At the museum,
visitors can get a closer look at Malacca
from the famed Malay Sultanate of the
14th century to the Portuguese era, the
Dutch era and the British era. There are
exhibits of foreign ships models that
had once called at the port of Malacca
during the height of its maritime hegemony.
