The remains of the old Portuguese fort A Famosa, what you can see now is a mostly Dutch reconstruction, bearing the VOC coat of arms.
A Famosa was a Portuguese fortress built in Malacca, Malaysia, around 1512. The oldest part of the fortress was a five-storey keep which eventually gave its name to the fortress as a whole. Some time following the Battle of Malacca (1641) and the occupation of the city by the Dutch, the keep was destroyed but the outer walls of the fortress were expanded. However, in 1811 the British destroyed all of the original fortress and most of the outer walls. The Porta de Santiago gateway, and the rebuilt Middelburg Bastion, are the only parts of the fortress that remain today.
