The data in this study were obtained from direct observations, interviews, and literature studies based on previous research articles. Then the data is collected and analyzed to obtain the nature of the cultivation of these character values. The results of this article indicate that Islamic cultural history education has not been able to fully develop the character of students because the material taught is not by the age of student growth, and the application of historical values ​​of Islamic culture to develop the character of students is through exemplary and habituation methods.
