Gedung Sate is one of the most impressive architectural heritage landmarks, one that reflects the heyday of Indo-European style. 


Gedung Sate was built in the 1920-1926 period, and is fascinating and well -maintained. In the Dutch period in Indonesia, the building was noted as Gouvernement Bedrijven Building (GB Building). Now it is the Provincial Government of West Java (Pemda Jawa Barat) where the Governor has his office. The site has beautiful landscaping all around with a view of Mount Tangkuban Perahu in the distance.
 Gedung Sate, is a neo-classical building mixed with native elements. Once the seat of the Dutch East Indies department of Transport, Public Works and Water Management, it now serves as the governor’s office of the West Java province in Indonesia. Located in Bandung, it was built in 1920 after a design by Dutch architect J. Gerber. Its common name, Gedung sate, is a nickname that translates literally from Indonesian to ‘satay building’, which is a reference to the shape of the building’s central pinnacle – which resemble the shape of one of the Indonesian traditional dish called satay. “Gedung Sate” is one of the historic buildings and has become a “landmark” in Bandung, and even West Java, for many years. And we know it as the central government of West Java, Indonesia.
