The foundation then bought a warehouse of a company, Geo Wehry & Co, that was located at Jl. Pintu Besar Utara no. 27 (now it's the building used as Wayang Museum). The warehouse was then renovated as Oud Batavia Museum. In 1939 the museum was open for public. After the independence of Indonesia the name of the museum was changed to Old Djakarta Museum, under the responsibility of Indonesian Culture Institution. In 1968 the Old Jakarta Museum was handed over to DKI Jakarta's government. On 30th March, 1974 the museum name officially changed to Jakarta History Museum by the government in-charged, Ali Sadikin. more information about JAKARTA HISTORY MUSEUM, visit : http://www.indonesia-travel-guide.com/Jakarta_Travel_Guide/Jakarta_History_Museum /Jakarta_History_Museum.html --------------------- About Indonesia Travel Guide Welcome in http://www.indonesia-travel-guide.com/.
