Nur KhamdahJune 13, 2015Morning visit is at its best as the sky is blue, perfect for contrast pics. Needs improvement inside the museum, not just collecting things but arranging them according to theme would b better👍🏽
Abdul H. Prawira DilagaDecember 25, 2013If you want to visit this Historical Maritime and Very Old Histories of The City of Jakarrta Museum of FATAHILAH during the weekdays, it is much better and it will give you a better experience.
The Ritz-CarltonJune 23, 2011The museum has more than 23,500 artifacts from the 17th to 19th centuries but perhaps the most famous is the canon in the square. Rub its metal hand motif and fertility is assured. So legend has it.
OreoMarch 31, 2019Opening hour & fee see pic. Better display after renovation. Mushola, toilet, souvenir & snack shops available. Again: another languange rather than Ind & Engl should be added.
lina pradanaJanuary 7, 2015Lots of memories here! Spooky at night and incredibly hot at the afternoon. It's under renovation, now. Just a walking distance from other museums.

- The Ritz-CarltonSeptember 13, 2012Jakarta History Museum charts the city’s story back to prehistoric times. But it has plenty of history itself. Built in 1710 it was the headquarters of the Dutch Colonial Government.
Nata ChristieJanuary 23, 201222 January 2012: I have been a volunteer of social campaign by @kisahdijalan : "Susu Tumpah di Jalan". We play & share the FREE milk for the underprivileged children that lives & works there.
Sari KusumoAugust 15, 2015You are required to take off your shoes and wear sandals provided. Not sure what for.- Sari KusumoAugust 15, 2015More of a 'historical site' than a museum. Nothing to see inside except old furnitures and 1 or 2 dutch paintings. Not as 'museum-like' as I remember.
Puspita KieMarch 20, 2014Need to put description on what they showing, instead putting up the photo of people doing renovation, better to put old photos of the past as part of the history.
D@vid :)September 19, 2014Kind boring place to visit but to know the history is ok as nothing is interactive here.
Emanuel ChristianNovember 11, 2011Don't forget to bring ur phone and camera, amazing place with olde town atmosphere
Amir SidhartaMarch 16, 2010Saw collections of various furniture & other artifacts from Indonesia's colonial times, the old dungeons where they stored ammunition or held prisoners, & learned many things about Jakarta's history.- Regine FiorenzaJune 15, 2010Go to this museum, you'll find VOC history and prison completed with skulls and heavy metals. Super affordable entrance ticket!
Rizza C. WakiminAugust 9, 2010come in just to take a picture, enjoy the sunset, etc. but, keep away from bitch who there since 9 p.m- CojoMay 31, 2011Okay to get a sniff of history but other than that nothing much of an exhibition. Lousy material accompanying objects (most have no description). For IDR 2000, very inexpensive so you get what you pay
Laurensius StevenMay 29, 2010a place where I do photography activities. you'll find a lot of good object there. but too crowded on weekends
Renaisanto SubrilianJuly 14, 2010Rent a classic bicycle and go round the "kota tua", they have wayang, art and ceramics and bank museums too nearby
dewi n.rasyidiMay 29, 2010I must say that the Old Town area these days is more like a fair, way too crowded !! I like the old one better. Skip Fatahillah area, go straight to Museum of Fine Arts/Toko Merah area instead.
Siti MaryamJune 2, 2010just buy the ticket less than 5.000 rupiahs, you can see many ancient things inside the museum.
Steven ChenApril 4, 2010TO Take a photo, go there around 3 PM till End and fill the romance of an old city
ciiechubbybangedz ntuuwiettDecember 23, 2010I have not been visiting this place ..place very crowded visitors and a large collection of accesories here ...
Sanita BudihardjoSeptember 3, 2010It's a part of the old city of Jakarta that almost forgotten by the youngsters.
M. Irvanie R HarahapMay 15, 2010A Spooky place perfect for test you wits or "Uji Nyali". Read about "9 October 1740" before you came here to add the horror of this place..
