Jatinangor, Administrative district in Sumedang Regency, West Java, Indonesia.

The district encompasses twelve villages across 262 square kilometers, including Cikeruh, Hegarmanah, Cibeusi, and Cipacing, with a population of 113,913 residents.

In 1885, Dutch colonial companies established tea and rubber plantations in Jatinangor, managed by the Maatschappij tot Exploitatie der Baud-Landen corporation.

The name Jatinangor derives from either the white teak trees that grew in Kiarapayung or from the tomb of an elder named Embah Nangoh.

The district connects to major transportation routes through the Rancaekek-Tanjungsari railway line, which was constructed in 1916 to transport plantation products.

The district features the Menara Loji tower, built by Baron Willem Abraham Baud, complete with a bell system for plantation management.
