Malacca Stamp Museum

Malacca Stamp Museum

The Malacca Stamp Museum is located in the city center of Malacca. Established in 2007, it is housed in an old Dutch building. Stamps are a valuable collection that blends art, finance, and history. They record history, nature, and important figures of a nation, serving as significant testimonies to the past. Through stamps, we can learn about a country’s culture, development, technology, society, and natural ecology. To understand Malaysia’s stamp history, a visit to the Stamp Museum is a must.

The Malacca Stamp Museum allows visitors to explore a wide variety of Malaysian stamps issued from the pre-independence era to the present without spending much money, effort, or time. The stamps, varying in size and color, are truly eye-opening. They are categorized by their year of issue and displayed in different cabinets. Some stamps are even enlarged and accompanied by brief descriptions that clearly convey their significance. Rare stamps, such as triangular and circular ones, can also be found here.

In addition to various stamps, the museum also displays different types of mailboxes. The designs of the mailboxes have changed over the decades, reflecting the development of Malaysia as a nation.
