National Museum

Museum Nasional

National Museum is a significant institution dedicated to preserving and providing insight into Indonesian culture. Established in 1778 as a research and knowledge institution for nature, history, and social culture by the Dutch East Indies (BGKW), this museum has evolved into the largest museum in Indonesia.

With four main buildings and a collection of 194,593 cultural objects, this museum showcases the diversity of Indonesian culture from prehistoric times to the present. Its collection encompasses prehistoric artifacts, works of art, and numismatics, establishing the museum as a central hub for the study of Indonesian culture and a major destination for researchers, students and visitors who want to understand Indonesia.

The revitalization of the National Museum underscores its commitment to reinforcing the identity of 'Kita Indonesia’' through narratives that chronicle the museum's journey over time.

Furthermore, the National Museum showcases its innovation in presenting collection information through educational programs aligned with current developments, immersive exhibitions, and the national-level Museum Quiz Competition (LCCM). Its international collaboration programs further emphasize the museum's commitment to public education, positioning it not only as a center for cultural studies but also as an appealing tourist destination for both domestic and international visitors."
