Hila Kaitetu village, located about 35 km from Ambon city, possesses some historical sites such as Immanuel church (built in 1659) and Wapauwe mosque (built in 1414), both claimed by the locals to be the oldest worship buildings in Maluku, even in Indonesia. Unfortunately, the ancient church was burned down and completely destroyed in 1999 conflicts, and today a replication is standing on its place, built so closely similar to the original one. On the coast nearby stands Fort Amsterdam, a former Portuguese fort which was then taken by the Dutch in the 17th century.
