The Governor's Museum (Malay: Muzium Yang di-Pertua Negeri Melaka) is a museum atop St. Paul's Hill in Malacca City, Malacca, Malaysia, which exhibits the personal belongings of various governors of Malacca since the independence of Malaya. The museum's building was formerly used as the official residence and office of the Dutch governor of Malacca,[1] as well as the official residence of the Yang di-Pertua Negeri or Governor of Malacca (Seri Melaka) until September 1996, before being turned into a museum and officially opened to the public in 2002.[2]
