Well worth a visit This museum is very interesting if you want to trace the development of Penang as it has changed hands over the centuries especially an insight into the British Colonial influence. Fort Cornwallis was named after The Prince of Wales who is also the Duke of Cornwall. I had not previously been aware of the history of Penang so this visit was well worthwhile.

槟城博物馆/槟州博物院 （马来语：Muzium Negeri Pulau Pinang；英语：Penang State Museum），建于1821年，从前是一所学校，充满了南洋风格。这座几乎在世界第二次世界大战的战火中毁灭的建筑物，收藏了大量槟城历史文物，包括升旗山第一代缆车、日军文件等。
