The Tunku Abdul Rahman Memorial represents a lasting symbol of the nation's gratitude to a great leader and statesman, Tunku Abdul Rahman , who freed the nation from the yoke of colonial domination.
The Memorial is housed at the site of the Residency which Tunku once occupied as the nation's Chief Minister and Prime Minister.
It provides permanent custody for all archival, museum and library materials belonging or relating to the late Tunku.
Visitors and researchers have the benefit of not only viewing the materials on display, but can conduct self research into the life and times of Malaysia's premier statesman.
The Memorial comprises three buildings. The Residency is the main building flanked by two newly constructed buildings.
