Definitely a place to go if you are genuinely interested in Karo culture and history. It is only a small space but it is enough to get a wrap up to karo culture overview. I hope this museum will even be better in the future (hopefully a more thorough description on the artifacts) and also, even more artifacts can be preserved here.

We unfortunately didn't get to go there because apparently they only open on weekends and from noon. The only reason why I gave 3 star not 2 or worse 1 star, was because when I message them here to check whether their opening time(google indicate that it is open from 10am to 5pm) was correct or not. It isn't. Please could u update your opening time on google? I was actually looking forward to come and was disappointed that it was close.

Can't find a better place to learn Karonesse history and culture. Kriswanto the museum caretaker is very knowledgeable about it. I am born and grow up in Karo highland yet I knew so little about history of my hometown.

This museum was build and made by a Cappusin Priest named RP. Leo Joosteen ( from Netherland ). Very amazing that a foreigner wants to make a Karo museum for heritage. Bravo !!!

A nice place to spend half an hour and learn a bit ABT Karo culture.

Nice and interesting museum and super kind and knowledgeable guide! Definitely worth a visit!

Good place, cheap, clean and beautiful museum
