Mandala Bhakti Museum, Military museum in Semarang, Indonesia.

The Mandala Bhakti Museum occupies a two-floor colonial building with stone foundations, plastered brick walls, and a traditional limasan tile roof in central Semarang.

Built in 1930 as a Dutch high court, the building transformed into a military headquarters during Japanese occupation and became a museum in 1985.

The museum exhibits Indonesian military heritage through weapons, photographs, and artifacts that document the national armed forces development across different periods.

Located on Jalan Soegijapranata Street facing Tugu Muda monument, the museum opens Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM with free admission.

A 25 PDR field gun stands at the entrance, while inside visitors can examine an original Luger pistol used during the five-day battle of Semarang.
