A former house of one of Grand General of Indonesia during 1960S. This house is a witness of tragedy at Cold Wars era of 30 September Movement during an attempt to kidnap him from his house and killed him in his own house. This house stand many of his private collection such as a real preserved sumatran tiger. But you cant take photos freely especially at Alm. A. Yani Bedroom because his family told to respect his privacy. Now this museum is handed to Indonesia Army and turn to a museum to Honor him.

G30s PKI was an unforgettable yet unprecedented rebellion that this nation had witnessed and undergone almost seventy years ago in the early days of establishment. And this mouseum which more likely seemed to be a house, was an eye witnessed of the peak of the rebellion. Sasmitaloka museum was a former house of late general and minister Ahmad Yani. He was assassinated in his house by the group of Communism Party who pretended to be his escorts. This museum will explain you guys more about the scenes and details about what had happened during by the time. Luckily, this museum is free and you will be accompanied by a guide. The house had kept to be as much as authentic as possible due to value of history. Yet unfortunately mostly on daily basis this museum is so quiet and rarely visited. And as a hint if clues, indeed for those who infatuated in antic stuff etc- there you'll see many gifts that the General Ahmad Yani had received during his reign such as a taxidermied tiger, head of onimusha (japanese warlord headpiece), armories, a phenomenal impala car, and a numerous details that they would more lovely to be witnessed by you guys in first hand.

Free entrance although we paid not much for the guardian (seikhlasnya). There are many photos of General Ahmad Yani with his families. His achievements during his life etc. The guide will explain to you about Bapak (they call General by bapak). Surprisingly the toilet is already modern. 1960s already had bathtub water heater and sitting toilet. There is small fish pond also. I spent less than 30 minutes here. can take photos except in Bapak's bedroom

I’m not into history that much but I liked it when I visited this place with some friends and her friends from Poland, Vietnam, Thailand and I guess they enjoyed their visit as well.

Short cultural visite with the kids. Worth it is you are interested in history.
