All elements of cultural heritage are found in the Jakarta Capital Special Region, which is also the capital city, government city, center of economy, trade and culture for the Indonesian people. The increasing age of objects, buildings and other elements of cultural heritage completes the city of Jakarta as a city center of culture and a tourism destination. On the one hand, the increasing number of cultural heritages in Jakarta Capital Special Region is also a vulnerable issue when there is an armed conflict. In order to maintain the preservation of cultural heritage in the worst times, normative protection efforts need to be carried out. This research is normative research with a comparative approach to the analysis of the content of national regulations and humanitarian law that applies when an armed conflict occurs. From the discussion of primary and secondary legal materials, it is concluded that there is an intersection between the two legal regimes that influence each other. For this reason, it is necessary to follow up and implement laws and regulations both in the legislative and executive fields, which can produce a positive impact on the protection of cultural heritage in Jakarta Capital Special Region area, especially in the event of armed conflict.
