Murray House

Murray House is a three-story building featuring Victorian architectural elements with large windows, wide verandas, and substantial columns throughout. Today it houses restaurants and shops accessible via stairs and modern elevators.

The building was constructed in 1844 as a marine police headquarters and originally stood in Central Hong Kong. In 2001 it was completely relocated to Stanley and rebuilt brick by brick.

The building brings together British colonial design and Hong Kong heritage, telling a story through its form and details. Visitors can see how two different building traditions meet in this structure.

The building is easy to access with multiple entrances for visitors exploring the restaurants and shops inside. It helps to know the location sits by the waterfront and is straightforward to reach on foot.

Workers numbered and cataloged over 3000 individual stone blocks during the dismantling process to ensure precise reassembly. This meticulous documentation allowed the entire building to be faithfully reconstructed in its new location.
