  • The Old Protestant Cemetery (Malay: Tanah Perkuburan Protestan Lama), also known as Northam Road Cemetery, is a disused Christian cemetery in George Town, Penang, Malaysia. After more than a century of neglect, it is now listed as a Class 1 Heritage Site and is maintained by the Penang Heritage Trust. The cemetery lies in a grove of frangipani trees along Northam Road (now Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah) near the historic core of George Town, only metres away from the beachfront and a short walk from the Eastern & Oriental Hotel. Established in 1786, the cemetery is of significant historic interest: it is older than many better-known burial grounds such as Père Lachaise in Paris, Powązki in Warsaw, the Zentralfriedhof in Vienna, and Highgate Cemetery in London. It is also 35 years older than the Old Protestant Cemetery in Macau. In 2012, conservation works were undertaken to protect and preserve the site, although there was some concern about how the restoration was done. (en)
  • Pemakaman Protestan Tua (Old Protestan Cemetery), juga dikenal sebagai Pemakaman Jalan Northam (Northam Road Cemetery) adalah pemakaman Kristen Protestan yang sudah tidak digunakan di George Town, Penang, Malaysia. Setelah lebih dari satu abad terabaikan, pemakaman ini sekarang terdaftar sebagai Situs Warisan Kelas 1 dan dijaga oleh Perwalian Warisan Penang (Penang Heritage Trust). Pemakaman ini terletak di antara pohon-pohon kamboja di Jalan Northam (sekarang Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah) dekat pusat George Town yang bersejarah, hanya beberapa meter dari pantai dan dapat dicapai dengan berjalan kaki dari Eastern & Oriental Hotel. Pemakaman ini dibuka pada tahun 1786 dan secara historis sangat menarik perhatian. Pemakaman ini lebih tua daripada pemakaman-pemakaman lain yang lebih dikenal, seperti Père Lachaise di Paris, Powazki di Warsawa, Zentralfriedhof di Wina, dan Pemakaman Highgate di London. Situs ini juga 35 tahun lebih tua daripada Pemakaman Protestan Tua (Old Protestant Cemetery) di Makau. Pada tahun 2012, dilakukan konservasi untuk melindungi dan melestarikan situs, meskipun ada beberapa kekhawatiran tentang cara restorasi dilakukan. (in)
