Best place to visit, I come here during Christmas and that time still PKPP. There some many changing after so long didn't come here. This photo I took inside of Church Malacca.

Iconic landmark of Malacca located just across the river from Jonker street. It’s the oldest church in Malaysia dated back to 18th century!

One of the best spot to visit in Melaka. Visited this place on Friday. So so many people come. Really popular as this is a tourist spot area. Take lot of pictures outside. But the weather really hot so dont go around a lot as i prefer to go to cafe nearby as too hot.

Definitely need to visit, historic buildings with unique paint job. If you visit early in the morning before 8am there is no one around.

The pink color draws people's attention. Many people agree that it is one of the iconic places of Melaka. You can visit the inside of the church for free. It's a walk in the park. Nothing special. Enjoy.

Beautiful church which was free to visit. You can get souvenirs from the gift shop where you enter.

It's beautiful to watch. It was the Portuguese who first occupied Malacca when they captured the city in 1511, and in 1521 a Portuguese noblemen, Duarte Coelho, decided to build the first church, dedicating it to the Virgin Mary to give thanks for surviving a storm in South China Sea. St.Paul’s Church was situated prominently on the hill overlooking the town and the Malacca Straits, within its defensive walls. The Portuguese lost possession of Malacca to the Dutch in 1641 and the church being Catholic could have been destroyed by the Dutch, who were mainly Protestant, but contrary to usual practice, they decided to preserve it and reconsecrate it as a Dutch Protestant church calling it “Bovenkerk” (“High Church”). The Dutch ruled Malacca from 1641 to 1824 and they used St. Paul’s Church for worship until 1753 when they completed the Christ Church in Malacca Square.

Beautifully preserved historic church located right in the heart of Melaka. This is an Anglican church with regular services. The architecture is beautiful and is a nod to Melaka's colonial past. There are often many tourists found milling outside the church hoping to sneak a peek inside it.

This is main area of malacca tourist destination. The other place to visit is just need to walking around. You can shop and eat a jogger street or mall near here. Many place to take photo. Easy to find and access. A complete tourist area.

Interesting place to visit. The atmosphere here is very warm and friendly. There's a pedestrian along the river and it's a long path to walk. Was here in September, and it was quite a hot season there, even at night the wind was minimal. I think Melaka is an area that tends to be warm. But being here at night is very romantic too. We can even take a boat that goes around the river area and enjoy the cool breeze with safe speed and safety standards. Along the main road across from Christ Church there are food vendors which are worth a try, often busy but the prices are very affordable.

Christ Church Melaka is a very nice red church. As you can see, inside it looks very nice and grand. On the pathway of going to the church, they are selling some keychains and coins of Melaka places and interesting things. So, if you ever want to buy a souvenir for your friend(s) or family, come here to buy them!

The area seems to be a lot smaller than I thought it would be. The buildings were very well preserved and it looks like it's been given a fresh coat of paint. However it's also been turned into a tourist attraction and there are many rickshaw riders parked there waiting for customers which really spoils the mood of the area. Nonetheless this place should definitely be on your list when visiting malacca, just don't expect to spend too much time here.

Good place to learn about some history of Malacca. The church is closed on Mondays, like many places in Malacca so I would suggest planning your trip outside of Mon/Tues.

My hotel was nearby this tourist spot hence I decided to walk to this place. Had been here a few times and no doubt it was Melaka's must visit place as Jonker Street and many more attractions nearby. Make sure that you find a proper parking in Melaka to avoid being fined by the authorities. Finding parking is quite hard in this area.

Really nice small church in the main old town, you can go inside and see old walls, is for free. Around nice place for photos and walking around

(Translated by Google) Malacca has been recognized as a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2008. Experience walking to explore the old town with its glorious history was once the most important port of Southeast Asia before. Dutch square and the church of Jesus: Outside these two monuments have a unique pink architecture. This is the most unique architecture and also the symbol of Malacca. Visitors often enjoy walking around and taking photos in this area or experience the colorful bikes here. This is one of the destinations not to be missed in the city. P / s: Pink here is painted because in the past, indigenous people ate betel nuts and sprayed out quite dirty. So we have devised a pink paint for the houses as you see them today!

A Dutch-style church set in Melaka's ancient town, surrounded by a variety of local restaurants and pleasant atmosphere. Popular tourists spot where you will come across visitors from across the world. The Chinese from China loves this area. You will see the ladies wearing traditionally nyonya dresses posing for photographs. Don't mistook them for local ladies.

Charming Dutch-style church nestled in Melaka's historic town, surrounded by a delightful atmosphere and numerous local eateries.

an ancient building from colonial time, attracting lots of tourists from the world, however, many scams here such as photo taking, be careful

It is a favourite historical tourism spot in Malacca visited by tourists from all over the world and even Malaysian themselves. Normally very crowded especially during holidays season... The place is very well taken care with a clean environment and flowers from the planter boxes is replaced regularly to maintain its freshly looks... The locals named this place Red House. Across the road that is where Jonker Walk located. It's all walking distance away...

This is one of the must-go locations in Malacca! I have been admiring the Dutch Empire and to see the oldest Dutch colonial building in Southeast Asia? I'm all into it! Though, the loud beca music gives me a cringe feeling, i gotta say. The church looks eerie during the night. But other than that, this is a fantastic place! Good luck with parking too 😅

Beautiful historical church. Interesting that the Dutch changed it from roman catholic into protestant

Good view and good place

Nice place

The ambience surrounds the church is so nice. There are lots of places you can go to after attending mass at church.

The church is a well known landmark in Malacca and is worth checking out when in the old part of the city. Malacca has a lot of history and was under three different colonial powers and before that, a powerful sultunate and this diverse history shows. This church is reminiscent of the Dutch colonial rule in Malacca.

Nice church and lots of interesting local history to learn. Very central to most of the local tourist attractions

Lovely place with free entry, very close to jonker walk, St Paul Hill, and A Famosa to name a few. At the entrance there’s also a small stall selling items related to Christianity that you can buy. Worth a visit.

One of the most iconic landmark in Melaka. Easy to find and is located within the popular tourist area and a stone's throw away from Jonker Night Market. Lots of trishaws around and they are a little noisy actually. There is a row of street vendors selling souvenirs. A must visit place for a photo when in Melaka.

Beautiful red coloured colonial era buildings situated at the centre of Melaka city. A must visit place when in Melaka. Strolling around the area and you will find other beautiful old historical buildings that still well preserved.

Iconic landmark in Malacca and you can't miss it. 18th century Dutch building that has stood the test of time. Well maintained, peaceful and cool inside when it's blistering hot outside, not much of an architecture marvel but the vibe and the historical significance is beyond me.

Protestant church from the Dutch colonial past in Malacca, built in the 18th century by the colonial government. It is one of the most popular spots to see when visiting Malacca, located in the Dutch Square, and a UNESCO world heritage site.

Nice well-kept site. Good meeting point. City bus stop is beside the church and also for many tour buses. Souvenir stands and some tasty street food available.

Iconic red church in Melaka. Didn’t go inside but it is a pleasant and scenic walk around the church and nice to talk photos. Many trishaw men are parked outside which can take you on a tour if you are too tired to walk.

A bit disappointed by the signage as it was a bit misleading. It said that the church was open for visiting when it was actually closed but it might’ve been a mistake on my part as well because if I’m not wrong, the church closes by 5 PM. Other than that, it was beautiful to recall my memories in the Netherlands by seeing the brick red colour of the Dutch styled church, the presence of Dutch and Portuguese colonialism was evident from a lot of the architecture and street names of that area

An 18th century Dutch designed and built protestant church. Claimed to be the oldest protestant church in Malaysia. It still holds services for the Christian congregation in Malacca. Originally painted in white but re painted in red in 1911 which gives it, it's significant color of Dutch - era buildings. Like other temples and mosque this is a nice place to visit and offer prayers. The entrance is at the office side, where they have a small shop for souvenirs. #RP

As you see in photo. Nice view & vibes. No ticket needed to walk around this area. A bit crowded during weekend

It is a Dutch built church in Melaka, one of the oldest and prominent building in town. Beautiful outside peaceful inside.

Small church in the heart of Melaka. The church isn’t open for travelers but we can explore the courtyard as well as the outside

Historical spot with many options to dine at corner of this church. We stayed a night with my close friend in this city to enjoy the scenery. A must visit again now that we have our respective families. It will not take more time to take a bus from Singapore to this place, and from this place to KL Malaysia. I will for sure visit again this historical place with the wife and kids so I can give them the chance to explore and learn culture of this heritage city in Malaysia. See you soon Melaka!

The Church Street (brick red building) was built with the Dutch architecture in the 18th century. One of the most prominent landmark located along Jalan Gereja. Behind the Protestant church usually have the souvenir shops, food trucks, and fancy trishaw Tips: Trishaw is the three-wheeled vehicle with pedals decorated with colorful cartoon character and open loud music. One ride will cost from 25RM depends on the distance

Christ Church Malacca is an 18th-century Anglican church in the city of Malacca City and the oldest functioning Protestant church in Malaysia. One way to roam around the city is to ride and experience the colorful trishaw, in which they are line-up around the corner of the church. Just a reminder that don't forget to negotiate the price first before to start the tour ride.

Christ Church built by the Dutch when they took possession of Malacca from the Portuguese and it is one of Malacca’s most defining structures. Situated along Jalan Gereja (also known as Church Street) it is an instantly recognizable brick-red building with a huge white cross at the top. Across the bridge from the Jonker Street, it is one of the most popular sightseeing attractions in the Stadthuys area. A lot of colourful trishaws (you can pay to ride it) and directly opposite is the Historical Museum and Ethnographical Museum. Sitting opposite the Stadhuys, Christ Church was built in 1753 to celebrate a century of Dutch occupation. The interior of the cathedral has 200 year-old handmade pews, decorative fanlights and plaques that honour Dutch soldiers and locals. The area is stepped in Baba Nyonya culture with opulent ‘Baba merchants’ houses and elegantly-conserved Nyonya restaurants that line the constricted roads. Christ Church is small – once inside, right beside the front doors there is a long table with brochures and religious paraphernalia for sale set up. There are about ten rows of pews before the main altar and the whole place has old light fixtures and plenty of worn-but-well-kept tiles. Besides its commemorative purpose, Christ Church was constructed due to the fact that when the Dutch first conquered Malacca, they had no place of worship other than St. Paul’s Church, a small chapel built on St. Paul Hill. Later on, when the British took over Malacca they added a weathercock and bell to Christ Church and transformed it from a Protestant church into an Anglican one. Entrance into the basilica is free; it is not a big building and the interior is dark yet cosy, with dark polished wooden pews that face the altar and large timber crucifixes that hang on the walls. Meanwhile, outside the church is a beautiful collection of potted plants and a colourful group of trishaws lined up for tourists.

Must see when visit Mallacca Especially there anime cyclos :)

Historical church in the city centre old town. Originally built by Portuguese was later converted by the Dutch. Very simple inside and it s a 10 minutes visit. Nice square outside.

A place for us to rest under the hot sun. Umbrella is recommended . Church doesn't seem special and lot of tourist stop by there. Few souvenir shop beside the church. Opposite the church sell watermelon juice which is very refreshing. It did help us to cooling down . Cost RM8 for small melon , RM 10 for a bigger one. The owner will dig a hole and blend directly inside the melon. So u can drink your chill juice freshly . Ice is recommended to request add on. (F.O.C ice). Overall experience is good.

Visited last saturday..interesting place

It's a landmark of melaka, definitely it's a must go as well!

If you wanna come to here, I recommended you to bring your hat & put your sunblock! bcs the weather’s so hot! Beautiful church ♥️

Tôi đã đến đây vs thấy có rất nhiều góc tự sướng😎😎😎 Christ Church Malacca is an 18th-century Anglican church in the city of Malacca City, Malaysia. It is the oldest functioning Protestant church in Malaysia and is within the jurisdiction of the Lower Central Archdeaconry of the Anglican Diocese of West Malaysia The Dutch conquest of Malacca from the Portuguese Empire in 1641 saw the proscription of Roman Catholicism and the conversion of existing churches to Dutch Reformed use. The old St. Paul's Church at the summit of St. Paul Hill was renamed the Bovenkerk (Upper Church) and used as the main parish church of the Dutch community. In 1741, in commemoration of the centenary of the capture of Malacca from the Portuguese, the Dutch burgher community decided to build a new church to replace the ageing Bovenkerk. The foundation stone was laid by the Malacca born Captain of the Malacca Burghers, Abraham de Wind, on behalf of his father, Claas de Wind, a prominent Burgher who had been the Secunde (Deputy Governor) of Malacca. The church was completed 12 years later in 1753 and replaced the Bovenkerk as the primary Dutch Reformed Church in Dutch Malacca.[2][3] With the signing of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824, possession of Malacca was transferred to the British East India Company and in 1838, the church was re-consecrated with the rites of the Church of England by Daniel Wilson, Bishop of Calcutta and renamed Christ Church. The maintenance of the church was taken over by the Government of the Straits Settlements in 1858.[4] Originally painted white, the church and the neighbouring Stadthuys building was painted red in 1911 and this distinctive colour scheme has remained the hallmark of Malacca's Dutch-era buildings since.

A pretty looking historical church besides Stadhuys Melaka. The surrounding buikdings are painted in milky red. Located nearby to the happening Jonker Street and Melaka river. An identity to Malacca city. Instagram: theroytravels

It’s better if we are here on Monday because it’s very quiet and not crowded

The area is quite small, but the view here is amazing. Packed of tourists and there are also lot of museum, shops, and many other activities you can do while visiting Mallaca. This one is a must visit when visiting Mallaca.

Very beautiful structured Church. One of the tourists attractions. Nice and cosy. A preserved heritage building. Staff there are pleasant and friendly. Bought few souvenirs from the Church, and this particular medallion is eye-catching.

Welcome to Melaka, where it all begins. It is a remarkable place as it has been standing there for more than 500 years. Recommended for photographers , nevertheless once you are there, please explore areas around you such as the AFamosa, St Paul Church and St Paul Hill, and of course the Jonker Street. Don't forget the Melaka River Cruise

this is a must see place in Malacca .

Nice place to visit except going on Monsoon. The area is filled up by lots of museum. So, Most of the museum cost between RM 10 and RM 15 for foreigner. So, keep cash with you.

Very good place to take Photos

The Christ Church, Melaka, Malaysia. It is the oldest functioning Protestant church in Malaysia, easily recognisable by brick-red building with a huge white cross at the top. Christ Church is located near to Malacca’s Chinatown centre and is a popular sight seeing place.

Good.

Visited in Feb before the shutdown. I came to Christ Church while in Dutch Square as the church building is one of the major attractions of both the square and the city. As churches go, the design of the church is fairly simple. That’s no surprise considering it’s a protestant church built in the Dutch Reform style. Much of the interior is also preserved in the old colonial dutch style with the wooden beams still visible on the roof. Again, the interior is austere in the traditional protestant manner. Also preserved is evidence of the pre British, Dutch use as many of the gravestones and memorials are written in old Dutch and some have the insignia of the Dutch East India Company. Not must see, but this is one of the landmark buildings of Malacca and it sits nicely pretty in red on the square.
