Makam Soekarno


Makam Soekarno adalah kompleks pemakaman dari presiden pertama RI Indonesia yang sekaligus proklamator kemerdekaan Indonesia, Soekarno. Makam ini merupakan makam dengan gaya arsitektur Jawa, dimana terdapat Joglo yang menjadi ciri khas utamanya.

Makam Soekarno terletak di Kelurahan Bendogerit, Kecamatan Sanawetan Kota Blitar. Komplek makam ini berdiri seluas 1,8 sejak Ir Soekarno wafat dan dimakamkan di sana. Pada tanggal 21 Juni 1970, kompleks makam ini untuk pertama kalinya dipugar. Dengan pemugaran itu pencitraan Makam Bung Karno sebagai ikon Kota Blitar semakin dikukuhkan. Ikon itulah yang mampu menyedot pengunjung berziarah di sana.

Sejak 2004, pengembangan kembali dilakukan dengan menambahkan bangunan baru yang menjadi satu kompleks dengan makam Bung Karno tersebut, yaitu Perpustakaan dan Museum Bung Karno. Tim arsiteknya diketuai oleh Pribadi Widodo dan Baskoro Tedjo dari Institut Teknologi Bandung.

Pintu masuk Makam ini dimulai dari jalanan yang menghubungkan perpustakaan yang berada di sisi selatan komplek makam hingga sampai pada gapura Agung yang menghadap ke selatan. Bangunan utama disebut dengan Cungkup Makam Bung Karno. Cungkup ini berbentuk bangunan Joglo, dan diberi nama Astono Mulyo. Diatas Makam diletakkan sebuah batu pualam hitam bertuliskan : "Disini dimakamkan Bung Karno Proklamator Kemerdekaan Dan Presiden Pertama Republik Indonesia. Penyambung Lidah Rakyat Indonesia."
