Abstract. This research aims to identify the potential
of cultural property in Cilacap Regency as a source
for learning history. The research is conducted using
qualitative approach through three stages, namely
identifying cultural property that can be used as a
source for learning history and educational tourism,
assessing the response of history teachers on the use
of cultural property as a source for learning history,
and assessing the strategy of using cultural property
as learning sources. The results show that (1) Cilacap
has 84 potential cultural properties that can be
developed as learning resources. (2) The potential of
the cultural properties has not been fully utilized by
teachers as a source for learning history. (3) The
reasons behind this are the teacher’s lack of
information about the cultural properties and the
distance between the location of the cultural
properties and the school. (4) History teachers in
Cilacap use project-based learning as a method of
using cultural properties as a learning resource.
