Perjuangan Rakyat Sumatera Bagian Selatan Monument Museum

The museum spans 23,565 square meters and features military equipment, historical photographs, uniforms, weapons, and documents from South Sumatra's independence period.

Established in 1980, this institution commemorates the five-day military conflict when Dutch forces besieged Palembang with tanks and artillery during Indonesia's independence struggle.

The museum contains 368 collections and 568 books documenting South Sumatra's resistance movement, including statues of regional leaders Dr. A. K. Gani and H. Barlian.

Located at Jalan Merdeka No. 1 in Palembang, the museum operates Monday through Friday from 09:00 to 15:45, with different admission rates for locals and international visitors.

The museum's architecture incorporates five petals symbolizing both the purity of the heroes' dedication and the five districts involved in South Sumatra's independence command.
