The arrival of Europeans to Nusantara in the 15th century gave various influences on people's lives, especially on cultural and religious aspects. Catholicism began to emerge among the people of Nusantara as a new belief; brought by the Europeans at that time. After going through various dynamics such as the power acquisition from the Portuguese to the Dutch, the spread of Catholicism had experienced turmoil in Nusantara and had to adapt to the socio-political conditions among the people at that time. Inculturation is one of the ways for Catholicism to gain sympathy and get closer to the community, by merging Catholic culture with local culture. The real form of inculturation can be seen through the construction of churches, where church architecture will try to follow and combine elements of Catholicism with local culture, one of which is the Church of the Sacred Heart of the Lord Jesus (Gereja Hati Kudus Tuhan Yesus) in Ganjuran, Yogyakarta. This research is one of the efforts to review objects or artifacts that are a form of inculturation at the Church of the Sacred Heart of the Lord Jesus, Ganjuran. Reviews of these objects and artifacts will be studied further to find out whether there is an impact on the worship procedures in the church. The method used in this research is a descriptive analysis by collecting data, such as: literature review, documentation and observation. The Yogyakarta earthquake in 2006 changed the presentation of HKTY Church, Ganjuran; which leaned towards Java. This is proved by the existence of artifacts such as the statue of the Virgin Mary, the statue of Jesus Christ, and the Temple of The Sacred Heart of Jesus, which adapt Javanese culture but there are still conventional aspects of Catholicism from the Vatican which are reflected in its visuals or philosophy. The form of inculturation that emerged in the church finally encouraged the adaptation efforts of the HKTY Church, Ganjuran to carry out worship procedures using the traditions of Central Java, especially Yogyakarta.
