Taman Prasasti Museum, Historical cemetery museum in Gambir, Indonesia
The museum exhibits ancient tombstones, sculptures, and statues within a 1.2-hectare complex that combines neo-gothic architecture with Javanese-Hindu design elements.
Established in 1795 as a Dutch colonial cemetery named Kebon Jahe Kober, the site transformed into Taman Prasasti Museum under Governor Ali Sadikin in 1977.
The collection includes memorial stones from multiple religions, traditional burial artifacts, and miniature tomb models representing 27 Indonesian provinces.
Located at Tanah Abang Street 1 in Central Jakarta, the museum operates from Tuesday through Sunday between 08:00 and 16:00, with separate ticket prices for adults and students.
The museum preserves 1,372 selected headstones from the original 4,200, including the tomb of Olivia Mariamne Raffles, first wife of British Governor Thomas Stamford Raffles.
