Kalibata Heroes Cemetery, National military cemetery in Kalibata, South Jakarta, Indonesia

Kalibata Heroes Cemetery is a military cemetery in the Kalibata district of South Jakarta, Indonesia. The site stretches across a wide area and holds thousands of burial sites for soldiers, freedom fighters, and state officials laid out in neat rows under shaded trees.

Built in 1953 and opened on 10 November 1954, the cemetery received Agus Salim, who died six days before the opening, as its first senior politician; 121 bodies were also moved here from the Ancol heroes' cemetery. Suharto's 1976 decree renamed it National Heroes' Cemetery, and Law 20/2009 gave it its current name and restricted burials to National Heroes and holders of the Star of the Republic or Star of Mahaputra.

Since the late 20th century, Japanese leaders visiting Jakarta have paid respects here; Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako came on 20 June 2023. Prime Ministers Koizumi and Abe and Prince Akishino also visited. Japanese volunteers who stayed after World War II to fight for independence are buried among the Indonesian dead, and their graves draw Japanese pilgrims.

The cemetery lies in Kalibata, South Jakarta, at the coordinates -6.25574, 106.84659. Visitors enter past the wide monument sign reading "TAMAN MAKAM PAHLAWAN NASIONAL KALIBATA - JAKARTA", set behind a low planter bed of green shrubs. Inside, graves repeat in rows on the grass, each with a raised grey stone border, a dark gravel bed and a smooth dark grey spherical helmet at the right end of a metal bar.

Some of the veterans buried here originally served in the Japanese army but remained in Indonesia after World War II to support the independence movement. These men received the honor of burial alongside local fighters despite their origins, recognizing their later loyalty.
