BUILDING FORM
Museum Perjuangan Yogyakarta is a
meaningful piece of architecture, designed
to depict the spirit of Indonesia's struggle.
The building is cylindrical in shape, known as
the “Round Temple,” which symbolizes unity
and strength. The design blends Western and
Eastern architectural styles, with the upper
part resembling ancient Roman buildings as a
symbol of the influence of world civilization,
while the lower part is inspired by Indonesian
temples, reflecting the nation's cultural
roots. This fusion shows the ideals of a
nation firmly rooted in tradition yet open to
global progress.
