Multatuli Museum

The Multatuli Museum displays artifacts, documents, and personal belongings of Dutch author Eduard Douwes Dekker within a restored 1923 colonial administrative building.

The museum building served as a Wedana office during colonial times before its transformation into a cultural institution that opened its doors in February 2018.

The exhibition spaces contain sculptures by Dolorosa Sinaga depicting characters from Max Havelaar, presenting Indonesian perspectives on Dutch colonial literature.

The Technical Service Unit of Lebak Regency's Culture Department maintains the museum, which includes wheelchair access and educational programs for visitors.

The collection includes materials from its Amsterdam counterpart, creating connections between Indonesian and Dutch interpretations of colonial history.
