Museum is an institution intended for the general public whose function is to collect, maintain, and present and preserve the cultural heritage of the community for research, education, recreation, and exhibition purposes. Regionalism architecture is an architecture that advocates the appearance of a building which is the result of a compound of internationalism with modern cultural and technological patterns, values and nuances of tradition that are still embraced by the local community. The Patiayam Archaeological Site is an ancient site in the Patiayam Mountains, Kancilan Hamlet, Terban Village, Jekulo District, Kudus Regency. About 4,000 fossils were found in Patiayam. Some of the elephant tusks are placed in the Ronggowarsito Museum, Semarang. With so many fossils, it will not be stored properly because there is not enough space. If this continues, it is not impossible if the fossil which is a cultural heritage will become extinct. This study aims to provide a planning concept for the Patiayam Kudus Archaeological Museum.
