The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative research methods involving visitors with physical disabilities and sensory impairments who have visited the permanent diorama exhibition room, staff at the Fort Vredeburg Yogyakarta Museum, as well as teachers and art activists in the context of people with disabilities in Yogyakarta.

The research results show that the accessibility facilities in the museum exhibition room meet the standards in the form of the availability of automatic doors, corridors, manuvering areas, rams and guide tiles.
