National Archives Building, Jakarta, Archive building in West Jakarta, Indonesia.
The National Archives Building stands as a two-story structure with Dutch colonial architecture, featuring a spacious garden and a prominent belfry at the rear section.
The building, completed in 1760, served as the residence of Governor-General Reinier de Klerk before becoming a mining department office in 1901 and later a state archive.
The museum displays collections from the VOC period, including maps from 1541, antique compasses, ship models, weapons, and a 17th-century ebony furniture set.
Located at 100 Jalan Gajah Mada, the building is accessible through the Trans Jakarta bus service, with the nearest stop within walking distance.
During nationwide riots, the building provided shelter to 80 workers while undergoing restoration, which earned a UNESCO Award of Excellence in 2001.
