| Summary: | Indonesia is a country rich in culture inherited from ancestors. Cultural diversity can be seen in the aspect of architectural buildings, namely heritage buildings with historical cultural values that must be passed on by generation. Their sustainability needs to be maintained as not many cultural heritage buildings are left to be found in Indonesia. The research object is the Kunstkring Paleis Monument building, originally established in the 19th-century gallery. This study aims to examine how the revitalization of historical buildings has occurred so far, related to changes in the function of cultural heritage buildings into commercial place that is still ongoing today without any change in architectural form. The research uses existing social exposure that exists with qualitative and descriptive methods. The result of this paper provides knowledge to the public and cultural arts experts, in particular about the adaptive reuse of heritage building space into a new function, as a commercial place. Kunstkring building which has stood for one century, can survive until now because of many preservation efforts made. Researcher figures out that revitalization can still be carried out in the future to preserve this historical and cultural heritage building.
