Dutch Fort - Kota Belanda


At Teluk Gudang lies the 300-year-old stone foundations of a Dutch Fort built in 1670. It was one of the Dutch strongholds against pirates and local Malays. The fort was abandoned after it was attacked by a local warrior, Panglima Kulub, and his followers. Muzium Negara undertook its reconstruction in 1973. Today, only the stone foundations and carvings on a large rock left by the soldiers remain.
