The idea of building a national sports museum emerged from Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwono IX, and was re-initiated by Abdul Gofur in 1986 and then set a location in Taman Mini Indonesia Indah. The building design was done by Ir. Zaini Rachiman, and the pattern and contents of the museum were compiled by a team chaired by I Nyoman Nuarte.
