GEDUNG MERDEKA/ MERDEKA BUILDING
SOCIETEIT CONCORDIA
The building was designed in 1926 by Van Galen Last and C.P. Wolff Schoemaker.
Both were professors at the Technische Hoogeschool te Bandoeng
(TH Bandoeng - which later became the Bandung Institute of Technology - ITB)
The building was first constructed in 1895 and was named Sociëteit Concordia, and in
1926 it was completely renovated by Wolff Schoemacher, Aalbers and Van Gallen.
The Sociëteit Concordia building is used as a place of recreation and socialization
by a group of Dutch people who live in the city of Bandung and its surroundings.
With the decision of the government of the Republic of Indonesia (1954) which determined
the city of Bandung as the venue for the Asian-African Conference, the Concordia Building
was chosen as the venue for the conference. At that time, the Concordia Building
was the largest and most magnificent meeting place in the city of Bandung.
