Proclamation of Independence Memorial, Independence history museum in Central Malacca, Malaysia.
The memorial occupies a white stucco building with two golden onion domes, displaying documents and photographs from Malaysia's path toward independence.
Originally constructed in 1912 as the Malacca Club for British colonists, the building was transformed into a memorial museum in 1985.
The museum presents exhibits about the Malay Sultanate period, colonial resistance, and the evolution of Malaysia into a modern nation.
Located on Jln Parameswara near A Famosa Gate, the memorial welcomes visitors from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM every day except Mondays.
The museum contains the actual table where Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's first Prime Minister, signed the Declaration of Independence in 1957.
