Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the heritage buildings in the Astana Gunungjati area. The Astana Gunungjati area is in the form of a building placed on a hill that serves as the tomb of the king and descendants of the Cirebon palaces. Around the 14th century, the Astana Gunungjati area was established with buildings, elements of space, and ornaments like the buildings of the Cirebon palaces. The research method is carried out using a case study approach to explore the heritage values of the Astana Gunungjati area. The results of the study show that the cemetery building in the Astana Gunungjati area is a building that replicates the palace with the values of the nobility of life. The shape of the building and the ornaments of the building show the influence of Chinese, Javanese, and Arabic architectures. The heritage value of the building symbols characterizes the essence of human life. This concept can be an input for local governments and the Indonesian heritage community to carry out conservation efforts in the Astana Gunungjati area. The research limitation is under the authority of the palace.
