Jardine Matheson Building, Protected heritage building on The Bund, Shanghai, China.

The seven-story Jardine Matheson Building stands at number 27 East Zhongshan Road Number One, featuring Beaux-Arts architectural elements and measuring 2100 square meters.

Built in 1922 by architects Moorhead & Halse, this structure replaced the original 1845 English cottage that marked Jardine Matheson's early presence in Shanghai.

The sixth floor houses the Jiushi Art Museum, which exhibits collections reflecting Shanghai's commercial and artistic development through different periods.

The building opens daily from 10 AM to 6 PM, with the ground floor containing retail spaces including an extensive Rolex store established in 2009.

During its century-long existence, the building gained an additional floor in 1930 and underwent a controversial modification in 1983 that altered its original design.

Location: Huangpu District

Architects: Moorhead & Halse
