About Maritime Museum (Muzium Samudera)

The Maritime Museum is housed partly in a full-size replica of the Flor de la Mar, a Portuguese ship that sank off Sumatra in 1511 after the conquest of Melaka. The replica is about 36 metres long and was opened as a museum in 1994.

Exhibits trace Melaka's sea trade from the sultanate through the Portuguese, Dutch, British and Japanese periods, with maps, ship models and artefacts. The ticket also covers the second gallery across the road and the Royal Malaysian Navy museum.
