ST. PETER'S CHURCH, MELAKA

St Peter’s Church, Melaka

More than 300 years old St. Peter's Church in Melaka

St Peter’s Church is said to be the oldest operational Roman Catholic church in Malaysia. Located in Melaka, it is beautifully preserved and has a gorgeous white facade.

Here’s a fun fact: although the church was constructed in 1710, it has an even older bell! It was made in Goa, India back in 1608 and was brought over from another church that was burnt by the Dutch.

When the foreign power first took over Malacca from the Portuguese in 1641, they persecuted the Catholics in the state – and this included destroying their churches.

It wasn’t until a later date that the Portuguese Catholics in Malacca had an easier time. It is even believed that the land on which the church is built was donated by a Dutch gentleman.
