In 1976 the premises were handed over to the municipal government of Jakarta and preparation were started to convert them into a museum.

    The maritime museum was officially opened on July 7th, 1997. The objective of this museum is to converse, maintain, protect and expose the Indonesia maritime and fishery tradition.
