Monumen Perjuangan Rakyat Jawa Barat, Independence monument in Bandung City, Indonesia.

Monumen Perjuangan Rakyat Jawa Barat stands on Jalan Dipati Ukur opposite Gedung Sate, its 17-metre form shaped like a sharpened bamboo spear in a modern style. The design by architect Slamet Wirasonjaya and artist Sunaryo has 8 pillars and a circular layout 45 metres across, with 17 steps to the top and 5 upright monuments above. A relief on the front wall depicts West Java's struggles from the kingdom era to the defence of independence.

Construction began with the first stone laid on 1 June 1991, designed by architect Slamet Wirasonjaya and artist Sunaryo, and the monument was inaugurated on 23 August 1995 by Governor R. Nana Nuriana. Its 17-metre form, 17 steps, 8 pillars and 5 upper monuments encode the date of Indonesian independence and the values of Pancasila.

The monument preserves memories of resistance against colonial rule and regional independence movements that shaped West Java's identity. These struggles remain part of how local people understand their place and history.

The monument faces Gedung Sate and stands in front of the Padjadjaran University campus on Jalan Dipati Ukur No. 48. Its grounds cover about 7.9 hectares, split into a 2.5-hectare square, a 2,143-square-metre building and a 5.4-hectare garden. Reaching the top of the 17-metre structure means climbing 17 steps; a prayer room and toilets are on site.

The monument's height of 17 metres, its 8 pillars and the 17 steps to the top refer to 17 August 1945, Indonesia's independence day. It was designed by architect Slamet Wirasonjaya with artist Sunaryo and built from 1991 to 1995.
