dari aktivitas masa lampau. Pengetahuan kebudayaan sendiri ini akan
menimbulkan kecintaan terhadap budaya lokal sekaligus sebagai wahana
pewarisan budaya.
Kehadiran Museum Goedang Ransoem di
Sawahlunto merupakan tempat dimana masyarakat dapat mengetahui tentang
pahitnya kehidupan masa lalu di Sawahlunto. Dari berbagai koleksi dapat
kita menggambarkan sekelumit tentang kehidupan orang rantai, teknologi
Dapur Umum yang dipakai Belanda, kebudayaan Sawahlunto dan lain
sebagainya. Yang menarik di Museum Goedang Ransoem Sawahlunto sekarang
adalah masyarakat tidak hanya dapat belajar tentang budaya masyarakat
tetapi juga pengetahuan tentang science di Pusat Ilmu Pengetahuan yang
kita kenal IPTEK CENTER.
Bangunan yang digunakan IPTEK CENTER ini
merupakan tempat penyimpanan padi bagi Belanda pada masa lalu, tetapi
sekarang dipenuhi dengan alat-alat peraga science. Dari alat ini bias
kita pelajari berbagai hukum-hukum fisika seperti gaya, gravitasi,
tekanan, energy, elektrik, dan ilmu kimia seperti sistem penyulingan.
Iptek Center Sawahlunto merupakan sarana
pendidikan dan rekreasi yang mampu memberikan informasi pada siswa dan
masyarakat untuk menambah khasanah ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi tanpa
kejenuhan. Tidak berlebihan kalau kita istilahkan bermain sambil
belajar, belajar sambil bermain.Wahana ini merupakan sarana science
center pertama di Sumatera dan ke empat di Indonesia, ini patut menjadi
kebanggaan bagi masyarakat Sawahlunto. Di IPTEK CENTER dapat kita temui
MENARA HANOI, KOMPOR MATAHARI, TORNADO VORTEX, JUMPING RING, AIR TRACK,
BUJUR SANGKAR AJAIB 15, dan masih banyak lagi.
Dengan menyajikan berbagai alat peraga
dan program, IPTEK CENTER Sawahlunto menekankan kepada kita bahwa iptek
itu mengasyikan. Diharapkan IPTEK CENTER merupakan wahana pembelajaran
bagi generasi muda untuk mengembangkan kreativitas dan menumbuhkan
kecintaan terhadap iptek; bagi pendidik untuk dapat mengajar iptek
dengan isu-isu populer dan mengena di masyarakat; bagi keluarga dan
masyarakat untuk lebih mengenal iptek terutama dalam mengatasi masalah
lokal, nasional maupun global; bagi para pakar untuk dapat
mengkomunikasikan ilmunya kepada masyarakat melalui tema dan bahasa
populer; serta bagi sektor litbang, perguruan tinggi dan industri dalam
sosialisasi dan promosi hasil-hasil litbang dan produksi kepada
masyarakat.
3. Taman Satwa Kandi
--> Resort Wisata Kandi Sawahlunto memilki total area +400 ha.
Bekas areal penambangan itu kini dikembangkan menjadi kawasan wisata.
Disini terdapat berbagai objek wisata. Sebut saja Danau Wisata Kandi,
Taman Satwa dengan Danau Tandikek-nya yang lengkap dengan aneka sarana

sejak tahun 2006, disini wisatawan dapat menjumpai beraneka ragam dan
warna satwa.
Taman Satwa Kandi dilengkapi dengan
berbagai permainan keluarga. Arena outbound dan permainan anak-anak.
Disini tidak hanya ada gajah tunggangan, tapi juga kuda yang akan

4. Museum Kereta Api
--> Pembangunan jalur Kereta Api dari Padang menuju Sawahlunto
dimulai pada tanggal 6 Juli 1889. Dibangunnya jalur kereta api bertujuan
memperlancar transportasi angkutan batubara dari Sawahlunto ke
Pelabuhan Emmahaven (Teluk Bayur), Padang.
Pembangunan jalur Kereta Api dibagi
dalam beberapa tahap. Jalur dari Pulau Aie (Padang)-Padangpanjang
selesai 12 Juli 1891. Kemudian Padangpanjang-Bukittinggi selesai 1
November 1891. Dilanjutkan jalur Solok selesai pada 1 Juli 1892.
Sementara jalur Solok-Muarokalaban bersamaan dengan selesainya jalur
Padang ke Telukbayur, 1 Oktober 1892. Sedangkan jalur
Muarokalaban-Sawahlunto selesai 1 Februari 1894. Akibat menurunnya
produksi batu bara Sawahlunto sejak tahun 2000-an, aktivitas
pengangkutan batu bara dengan kereta api berhenti total.
Mengingat sejarah kereta api dan tambang
bara yang terkait erat, maka pada tahun 2005 Pemerintah Kota Sawahlunto
bekerjasama dengan PT. Kereta Api menjadikan Stasiun Kereta Api
Sawahlunto sebagai Museum Kereta Api kedua di Indonesia setelah
Ambarawa.
Museum Kereta Api Sawahlunto memiliki
koleksi berbagai asset kereta api. Beberapa rangkaian gerbong kereta
dari zaman yang berbeda dan miniatur lokomotif uap dapat disaksikan
disini. Ratusan peralatan benda yang pernah digunakan dalam
pengoperasian kereta api dimasa lalu berhasil dihimpun sebagai koleksi
Museum Kereta Api kota Sawahlunto.
Perjalanan wisata
Sawahlunto-Muarokalaban dengan melewati terowongan sepanjang hampir 1
km dapat dilakukan dengan kereta wisata. Atau juga untuk berkeliling
kota lama selain berjalan kaki tersedia juga mobil wisata yang siap
membawa wisatawan berkeliling kota lama Sawahlunto.
5. Museum Gudang Ransum
--> Sebuah prestasi dan kebanggaan dapat
kita saksikan disini, dimana pemanfaatan kemajuan teknologi, memasak
dalam skala besar dengan teknologi uap panas sudah hadir di Sawahlunto
sejak awal abad ke-20, bahkan yang pertama di Indonesia masa itu. Hal
ini dapat dilihat dari setiap bagian bangunan dan peralatan yang
digunakan.
Disini tidak hanya terdapat dapur tempat
memasak, juga terdapat beberapa bangunan yang memiliki fungsi yang
berbeda, namun merupakan satu kesatuan utuh yang saling mendukung satu
sama lain. Diantara bangunan-bangunan tersebut adalah: Bangunan utama
(Dapur Umum), gudang besar (warehouse) persediaan bahan mentah dan padi,
Steam generator (Tungku Pembakaran) buatan Jerman tahun 1894
yang dibuat oleh ROHRENDAMPFKESSELFABRIK D.R PATENTE. NO.13449 &
42321 berjumlah 2 buah, Menara cerobong asap, pabrik es
batangan, hospital, kantor koperasi tambang batubara Ombilin, Heuler
(penggilingan padi), rumah kepala ransum, rumah karyawan, pos penjaga,
rumah jagal hewan, hunian kepala rumah potong hewan.
Catatan sejarah menunjukkan Dapur Umum memasak rata-rata 65 pikul beras setiap harinya. Selain itu juga memasak dan menyediakan makanan ringan seperti lepek-lepek bagi pekerja tambang, bubur bagi pasien Rumah Sakit Ombilin. Dengan demikian dapat dipastikan Dapur Umum melayani kebutuhan makan ribuan orang. Karena itu pula peralatan masak yang tersedia dalam ukuran serba besar. Dapat kita bayangkan betapa besarnya periuk pemasak nasi dan sayur dengan diameter 124 cm hingga mencapai 148 cm, badan beriuk setinggi 60 cm hingga 70 cm dan tebal 1,2 cm.
Pada masa dahulunya Dapur Umum itu berfungsi sebagai tempat melayani kebutuhan makan para:

Pada masa dahulunya Dapur Umum itu berfungsi sebagai tempat melayani kebutuhan makan para:
- 1. Orang hukuman, lebih dikenal sebagai orang rantai
- 2. Karyawan Tambang yang belum berkeluarga (bujangan) terutama
- mereka yang didatangkan jauh dari Belanda (Nederlands).
- 3. Buruh tambang yang sudah bekeluarga.
- 4. Pekerja dan pasien rumah Sakit Ombilin.
Sejak tahun 1945 Dapur Umum tidak
efektif lagi memasak untuk kebutuhan pegawai tambang, tapi lebih
diutamakan untuk kebutuhan tentara. Pada tahun 1945 di gunakan untuk
memasak makanan untuk TKRI. Pada tahun 1948 Dapur Umum ini di pergunakan
untuk memasak makan untuk kebutuhan tentara Belanda (Kenil) dan tahun
1950 setelah kemerdekaan RI sampai sekarang Dapur Umum tidak lagi di
gunakan sebagai tempat memasak. Berbagai perubahan fungsi telah dilalui
seperti; periode tahun 1950 1960-an bekas Dapur Umum difungsikan
sebagai tempat penyelenggaraan administrasi bagi perusahaan Tambang
Batubara Ombilin. Masyarakat menyebutnya sebagai tempat pengetikan.
Periode dahun 1960 - 1970-an bekas Dapur Umum dimanfaatkan sebagai
tempat pendidikan formal setingkat Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP)
Ombilin.
Periode Tahun 1970 1980-an bekas Dapur Umum difungsikan sebagai hunian para karyawan tambang Ombilin hingga tahun 1980-an. Periode tahun 1980-an sampai tahun 2004 masih sebagai hunian karyawan perusahaan, tapi sebagian bangunan juga ditempati masyarakat yang mendapat izin tinggal oleh perusahaan. Keadaan seperti ini berlangsung hingga awal tahun 2005.
Ruang pameran utama merupakan bekas ruang masak Dapur Umum. Disini dipamerkan benda-benda koleksi peralatan masak Dapur Umum. Peralatan masak yang serba besar dapat disaksikan disini dengan sistim masak uap panas dari steam generator yang unik.
Wisatawan juga dapat menyelami Sawahlunto tempo dulu melalui GALERI FOTO yang menyajikan berbagai tema. Disini melalui foto-foto wisatawan dapat memahami perjalanan panjang Sawahlunto dari masa ke masa.
Keragaman budaya tumbuh dengan suburnya di Kota Arang Sawahlunto. Hal itu terlihat dari berbagai atraksi seni dan budaya maupun perhelatan daerah. Tidak hanya budaya dan pakaian adat Minangkabau saja yang ada di Kota Sawahlunto, kebudayaan daerah lain seperti Jawa, Batak, dan Cina pun turut mewarnai keragaman budaya di Sawahlunto
Dengan adanya keragaman budaya inilah Sawahlunto dikenal dengan kota multi-etnis. Setiap nagari di Sawahlunto dalam bingkai budaya Minangkabau memberikan corak dan warna tersendiri dengan Adat Salingka Nagari-nya. Nagari Silungkang, Talawi, Kubang, Tak Boncah, Lumindai, Kolok, Lunto, Kajai, Talago Gunuang dan Sijantang misalnya, memberikan warna yang berbeda antara satu dengan yang lain. Apalagi kehadiran etnis lainnya seperti Jawa, Batak maupun Cina yang turut menambah khasanah keragaman seni budaya di kota Sawahlunto.
Keragaman etnis dan budaya di Kota Sawahlunto itu diwakili dengan kehadiran Galeri Etnografi Kota Sawahlunto. Lebih dari itu galeri etnografi menghadirkan berbagai benda peralatan hidup yang pernah digunakan masyarakat Kota Tambang Sawahlunto. Semua itu dapat disaksikan dalam kawasan Museum Goedang Ransoem kota Sawahlunto
