After 39 years in the building on Jl. Matraman Raya 23
The relocation of the Goethe-Institut Jakarta
After thirty-nine years in the building on Jl. Matraman Raya 23, the Goethe-Institut Jakarta moved to Jl. Sam Ratulangi 9-15, Menteng, Jakarta. The groundbreaking ceremony for the construction took place in May 2000 by the German Ambassador Heinrich Seemann. The building was previously a former German school. Until now, the building on Jl. Sam Ratulangi 9-15 stands as a solid first point of contact with Germany in the capital.

Serambi Jazz
The jazz concert series Serambi Jazz was the conception of the pianist and composer Riza Arshad and the Goethe-Institut Jakarta.

The first edition of Serambi Jazz took place on 26 February 2009 at the GoetheHaus with performances by the Ligro Trio and the Donny Suhendra Project. Since then, Serambi Jazz has taken place every two months until 2014.
