History

Tanjung Priok Station can not be separated with Tanjung Priok Port as it was the main port of Dutch Indies and the gate of Batavia or even Dutch East Indies.

The port that was built in 1877 under Governor-General Johan Wilhelm van Lansberge who control the Dutch East Indies in 1875-1881 is showing their importance and getting the title of one of the busiest port in Asia after the Suez Canal has been open.

Tanjung Priok Station linked the port with the city of Batavia in the south. During that time, Tajung Priok Port area was a swamp that was dangerous for travel. The only safe mode of transport was train. That was the reason of building train tracks to Tanjung Priok.

The station was built in 1914 under Governor-General Alexander Willem Frederik Idenburg who ruled Dutch Indies from 1909 to 1916. To finish the station, the construction needed to employed worker as much as 1,700 workers and 130 of it was European.
