The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. Data were collected through interviews with archivists, diorama compilers. Secondary data were obtained through print and electronic media data sources according to the research objectives. Data was also obtained through observations of several dioramas, archive exhibitions, presentation of archives in the form of historical videos. After the data was processed, the results showed that knowledge management in archival science is very necessary for the presentation of archives into information, because dioramas, archive exhibitions, historical videos, require a collection of archives that have been codified, equipped with descriptions of events and processed into a series of coherent and informative information that can be enjoyed by the public.
