Governor's Museum, Colonial museum at St Paul's Hill in Malacca, Malaysia.

The Governor's Museum exhibits personal belongings, portraits, and regalia of various governors who administered Malacca throughout different periods.

The building served as the official residence and administrative office for Dutch governors during colonial times until its transformation into a museum in 2002.

The museum displays traditional costumes, ceremonial items, and historical artifacts that represent the evolution of governance in the Malacca region.

Visitors can access the museum daily from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM with an entrance fee of 5 Malaysian Ringgit, which includes access to the History Museum.

The structure maintained its function as the Yang di-Pertua Negeri residence until September 1996, marking the end of its residential administrative purpose.
