Radya Pustaka Museum

This small museum occupies a grand old Javanese building. Dating back to 1890, it is the second-oldest museum in the whole of Indonesia and contains a valuable collection of local and Dutch literature. More accessible for the casual visitor are the cabinets of gamelan instruments, jewelled kris (traditional daggers), puppets and wayang beber (scrolls that depict wayang stories).
