The preservation of Indonesia’s cultural heritage increasingly requires digital innovation that not only archives historical material but also engages users through adaptive interaction. However, existing digital cultural platforms seldom provide personalized learning experiences and often lack iterative user-centered development, creating a clear gap in adaptive digital cultural heritage applications. This study aims to design and develop a cultural application titled Sri Ranggah Rajasa Sang Amurwabhumi using a hybrid framework that integrates the Agile Development Method with a Content-Based Filtering (CBF) approach. Agile was applied through iterative cycles of design, development, implementation, integration, and testing, enabling continuous enhancement based on user feedback. Meanwhile, the CBF algorithm was used to generate personalized cultural content recommendations by analyzing semantic similarities among historical items. The novelty of this research lies in the unified hybridization of Agile and CBF to support adaptive, personalized digital cultural learning centered on a specific Indonesian cultural figure. Data were gathered from 30 respondents, including students and cultural practitioners, through usability testing and structured questionnaires. Results indicate high performance across key aspects: functionality (91%), usability (90%), recommendation accuracy (88%), and user satisfaction (93%). These findings demonstrate that combining Agile and CBF strengthens technical reliability while improving engagement through adaptive content delivery. Agile supports iterative refinement of user interfaces and system responsiveness, whereas CBF enables intelligent personalization in cultural learning environments. Nevertheless, this study is limited by its modest sample size and its focus on a single cultural topic, which may reduce generalizability. Future work will expand the dataset, incorporate multimodal cultural content, and validate the hybrid framework across broader Indonesian cultural domains..
