Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum, Peranakan cultural museum in Malacca, Malaysia.
The Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum occupies three connected houses featuring traditional Nyonya architecture with detailed wood carvings, tiles, and multiple courtyards.
Chan Kim Lay's great-grandfather constructed this building in 1896 on Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, a street known for its luxurious residences.
The museum exhibits showcase daily life of Peranakan people through collections of traditional clothing, jewelry, furniture, and household items from Chinese-Malay families.
Guided tours operate Monday through Thursday from 10:00 to 13:00 and 14:00 to 17:00, with extended hours Friday through Sunday from 09:45 to 16:30.
A solid cenggai wood staircase with gold-leaf carvings stands as the central architectural element, demonstrating the refined craftsmanship of 19th-century builders.
