The Bung Hatta Birth House (Rumah Kelahiran Bung Hatta) is a house museum on Jalan Soekarno-Hatta in Bukittinggi, West Sumatra, marking the birthplace of Mohammad Hatta.

Why go

This record is the house museum, not the Bung Hatta library (Pustaka Hatta) or the Istana Bung Hatta, which the city lists separately. Wikidata describes it as a house built to recall and give an overview of the place where Hatta was born and spent his childhood until the age of eleven, records the Bukittinggi city government as its owner and 12 August 1995 as its opening date, and also gives 1860 as an inception date; XTOUR does not settle how much of the original house survives. The Bukittinggi city government lists the birth house among its historical sights. XTOUR states nothing about entry or reservations.
