Jogja National Museum

The Jogja National Museum is a large concrete building with exhibition spaces spread across multiple levels showing contemporary Indonesian artworks and installations. The spaces allow visitors to discover different artistic works as they move through the floors.

The building was founded in 1950 as Indonesia's first visual arts school. Over time it developed into a museum focused on modern artistic expression.

The museum serves as a platform where Indonesian artists exhibit their works and make current artistic movements accessible to visitors. The rotating exhibitions show how the country's contemporary art scene evolves and what themes engage artists today.

The museum is best reached by Trans Jogja buses on routes 2B, 9, and 11, with the nearest stop at SMA 1 station. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the different levels and exhibitions without rushing.

The museum houses an independent record store where visitors can browse vinyl collections while exploring the art exhibitions. This combination allows art and music to come together in an unexpected way.
