National Awakening Museum, Historical museum in Senen, Jakarta, Indonesia.
The Museum of National Awakening occupies a colonial structure with exhibitions arranged along courtyards, displaying medical instruments, weapons, paintings, and historical artifacts.
The building, constructed between 1899 and 1901, initially served as STOVIA, a colonial medical school for native Indonesian students with mandatory dormitory residence.
The museum preserves 2,042 items that document Indonesia's path to independence through four exhibition rooms focusing on revolution, national awareness, and the Boedi Oetomo movement.
Located 1.5 kilometers from Monas in Central Jakarta, the museum operates Tuesday through Sunday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with extended hours until 4:30 PM on Fridays.
During Japanese occupation in World War II, the building transformed from an educational institution into a containment facility for Dutch prisoners of war.
