This paper investigates the challenges faced by the building custodians of Malaysia’s National Heritage Anglican churches in maintaining these structures. Malaysia is one of the countries with a broad variety of architectural styles and old structures due to its rich multicultural society. However, a large number of these structures are in disrepair and have obvious defects. Even though they have been designated as National Heritage, it is the owners’ responsibility to maintain them. In total, Malaysia has four Anglican churches that have been gazetted as National Heritage. Due to the lack of legal protection, these churches frequently rely on congregational donations for maintenance. This paper conducts interviews with the building custodians of these churches to delve into the fundamental problems and difficulties they are encountering with maintaining the churches in order to determine the cause of the crisis.
