Pancasila Building, Colonial governmental building in Central Jakarta, Indonesia.
The Pancasila Building exhibits Indo-European architectural elements with a symmetrical facade, large windows, and white exterior walls spanning multiple floors.
Constructed in the 1830s, the structure initially served as a residence for Prince Bernhard van Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, commander of the Dutch colonial army.
The building gained its name from Sukarno's pivotal speech on June 1, 1945, introducing the five principles that became Indonesia's state philosophy.
Located at Jalan Pejambon Number 6, the building operates under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and hosts diplomatic ceremonies and state events.
The structure transformed from a colonial residence to the Volksraadgebouw in 1918, marking the first inclusion of Indonesian representatives in national governance.
