The Exile House of Soekarno in Ende


Kelimutu Lake


Komodo Dragon


Talking about ENDE in Flores island, this city plays an important role to the history of Indonesia Independence. The first Indonesian President SOEKARNO – the father of the NATION, was exiled to ENDE by the DUTCH Colonial Government for four years (1934 – 1938). During his exile he often meditated to get inspiration for Indonesian Independence. Then came out the idea to form PANCASILA – the philosophical foundation for Indonesian.

Despite his exile, the late SOEKARNO had a burning desire to fight against the Dutch Colonial government. He frequently met and socialized with villagers in ENDE, visited KELIMUTU lake. Then he founded a theater group named KELIMUTU SECRET to spread his political messages.

The house was built in 1927 – owned by ABDULLAH AMBUWARU. In 1954 The Indonesian government then took over the house and made it as a national heritage.
