Cikini Hospital, also known as PGI Cikini Hospital, Rumah Sakit Cikini, is a hospital in Cikini, Menteng in Jakarta, Indonesia. It was formerly a mansion that was designed by Indonesian painter Raden Saleh, who used it as residence. Use of it as a hospital and nursing academy began in 1898.[1] The building was built in 1852 and is known for its park-like setting in busy Jakarta, and was home to antelope until they were removed in the early 1970s. Saleh once had a collection of wild animals on the property.[2] It has design features similar to the Callenberg Castle.[2]
The hospital is located at Jalan Raden Saleh No. 40 in Cikini, Central Jakarta on 5,6Ha. It has approximately 300 beds.
The home was visited by Franz Derdinand in 1893 during his world tour.[3] He saw preparations for the Batavia Exhibition of 1893 on the grounds of the house.[3][4]
