Fort Vredeburg Museum

5 P S D - 3 months ago

One of the best maintained historical building or fortress.

Big parking space just before the fortress makes us easy to park our car and direcly walk to the entrance.

Tickets is really cheap.

We followed the guidelines and enjoyed ourselves, we managed to go up at the fortress watch tower and make a half way around the compound.

1,5 hours later we finished our trip and take some exciting pictures.

This place gives you very high value to what you will get in here. In here, you will learn actual fort building directly. There are also lots of diorama presenting Indonesia's era during freedom fighting to the Dutch and Japanese aggressors. Overall, it was trully an interesting experience here, not to mention the entrance fee was very cheap, we only pally 11 k rupiah (1 adult + 4 children), can you believe it!

Museum that was a Fort built by Yogyakarta King as requested by Netherland Governor.
Inside the museum we can see the timeline history during the declaration of Indonesia Independence.
Good history site that is displayed wonderfully.
Recommended to learn our own history.
And for foreigner to know Indonesia’s history as well.

A well kept gem from the Dutch colonial era in the heart of Yogyakarta. The museum tried their best to present the city's history through dioramas. Wished that more historical items could be displayed.

A well maintained historical building in Yogyakarta. There is a mini cinema inside where you can watch short documentary about the fort's history. The guides are so friendly, they explain every diorama well. Some interactive media are not working properly, I hope the staffs can fix them in the near future.

The fort is now a history museum in Yogyakarta. Really like the classic building in the Vredeburg Museumt. The entrance fee is only IDR 3000 per person. The stories and dioramas presented are very complete and interesting. The museum area is neat, clean and spacious. In the front yard there is a playground for children. unfortunately the historical section of the vredeburg fort itself is missing.

Costs 10k to enter and is found on an old Dutch fort. Apart from the interesting architecture, there are a large number of dioramas that covers Yogyas history from a very Indonesian bent but that is to be expected. There is also lots of space for kids to run around outside as well....
