Tugu Pahlawan, Java, Indonesia

4.0 (404 reviews) Spent Ranking #6 in East Java Points of Interest & Landmarks

Historical, important place to Surabaya.

I had no idea of the history of Surabaya, but the square, monument and museum all educate a visitor. 10 November 1945 is when the Indonesians started to fight the British for 21 days. The square is well laid out and the monument is striking. I visited early on a public holiday and it was hard to get into the square, but the museum was open. The football stadium is named after the date of the war.
