Submarine Monument (Monkasel)

Monumen Kapal Selam

A museum built from a real Soviet-built submarine moved onshore. Visitors can walk through the compartments to see the torpedo room, conning tower, and periscope.

The Submarine Monument displays the Indonesian Navy submarine KRI Pasopati 410. Built by the Soviet Union in 1952, it took part in the 1962 campaign to liberate West Irian. After retirement, it was moved intact onshore and placed in a square beside the Surabaya River. Visitors can walk from end to end through the narrow compartments and see the torpedo tubes, bunks, control room, and periscope. A small cinema nearby screens naval war films. Admission is about 15,000 Indonesian rupiah. The monument is located beside Plaza Surabaya mall in the city center and can be combined with visits to Heroes Monument and Gedung Negara Grahadi.
