Gombong, a small city in Kebumen, Central Java. Last time I travel to Gombong with my working mate, to attend the wedding ceremony my lovely Rizki. Her wedding held in one of the sights called Benteng Van Der Wijck.
This location formerly built in 1818 by Dutch East India Company (VOC) office and conquer to Diponegoro war. There were many troops come to the location and make the military office. In 1844-1848, this locationbuilt in the office location for preparation to clash with Yogyakarta Sultanate and named this location as Fort Conchius. In 1856 this location is used as Pupillenshool for European youngster who born in Indonesia (Hindia Belanda) and the Dutch Collonial changed the name to Benteng Van Der Wijck. Ok you can ask google for the detail information :)
Benteng Van Der Wijck has octagon shape and most of the wall consist of red color.
