Sacred and Healing
Oct 2019
I attended Sunday Mass when visiting Bandung City in October.
It is just a wonder, when I attend Mass in Indonesia, that Catholics in Indonesia look more faithful than people in any other parts of the world. I always become so excited and healed when I attend Mass there. St. Peter's Cathedral in Bandung is located in the center of the city, and of course a beautiful church. I am so proud of Catholics in Indonesia who keep their faith to Christ in not-Christian-friendly environment.
If you are Catholic and visiting Bandung, please come and pray to Lord at St. Peter's.

Interesting church

The church has interesting history and architecture. I didn’t expect to find a Catholic Church in a Moslem majority area. But this shows there’s good religious relationship between the people

Beautiful cathedral in Bandung
Apr 2019 • Couples
This is a really nice and pretty old cathedral located in the heart of Bandung. I actually drive past it everyday but this was my first time to visit it. There is a large carpark with more parking space on nearby roads.
The cathedral is not a very large one but still very impressive both inside as well as the exterior with beautiful architecture. The age of the cathedral is almost a hundred years old so it was built during the Dutch colonial era.
Directly across the road from the cathedral is Bandung's main police headquarters which is quite comforting in this day and age. Also, I noticed that there was always a police car parked in the carpark.

what time are the mass times on Saturday and Sunday? We will be in Bandung on 13 and 14 October and would like to attend mass? Is there a mass conducted in English? Thank you.

My suggestion is to take a look at the official website and you can perhaps find the information you are looking for. Also, there is a contact email address where you can ask them directly about mass on 13 & 14 October and whether it is in English.
Good luck.

There is no English Sunday Mass at the Cathedral. There's a 10am Sunday English Mass at Chapel (GEMA) Sekolah Aloysius, Jl Sultan Agung #2, tel 4213257. An English Missal is very helpful in attending Mass at the Cathedral as there are no English Mass there, even on a Sunday.
