Gopeng was a tin mining town for about 100 years from the 1870s onwards. Its early development was dominated by three groups – the Mandailings from Sumatra, Chinese miners led by Eu Kong and European mining companies.
Heritage House is an annex of Muzium Gopeng which opened to the public in 2009. They are located a short walk from each other so both can be conveniently visited if you are passing through the quaint historic Perak town of Gopeng.
