Build with a generic government building architecture, Gedung Sate (Satay Building), in Indonesia, is now used as government building after being nationalized from the Dutch.
GedungSate, literally the "skewered-meat building", is called so because at the top of it there is a structure shaped like a skewer with six rose-apple-like pieces of meat.
The construction of GedungSate, which was a giant labor-intensive project in those days, relied on conventional building methods and used local materials.
As an historical building, GedungSate may fare better than other historical buildings in Bandung, especially those owned privately, many of which have been demolished because the owners could not afford the maintenance costs.
