INTRODUCTION
The role of the younger generation in contributing to the transformation of history so that it becomes a shared education for all groups are needed.Given that the Z generation is also a golden opportunity, especially supported by the presence of increasingly sophisticated technology, it certainly provide in convenience for all of them.With regard to this, in Lampung, especially in the city of metro, which is known as local history, one of the materials for historical education is a cultural heritage building (Tadris et al., 2023).Cultural heritage buildings are one of the heritages that The Role of Generation Z in the Track Record of time…, Nahrul Mukholidah & Wardani, 573-582 DOI: 10.24127/hj.v12i2.9787574 must be preserved.Not only that, we should prioritize the utilization of cultural heritage buildings so that they can be known more widely to the surrounding community (Hidayanti & Hidayat, 2020).
Metro City is one of the areas that has a lot of potential benefits for its   Lampung (Syahidah & Setiawati, 2019).
According to Gottschalk, the historical method is a process of providing an assessment through testing and critically analyzing data in the form of buildings, historical objects and testimony or relics of the past.We can also use this historical method to predict, analyze how events will occur in the future.Therefore, based on the expert explanation above, what is meant by the historical method is a way to be able to solve problems using past data or relics that still remain in order to understand history in detail (Syahputra et al., 2020).
In addition, some of the procedures obtained and poured into writing (Sugiyono, 2016).

Local History in the City of Metro

Historical Transformation
The historical record that exists in the metro city is certainly an attraction for everyone when they visit both cultural heritages building sites and other historical objects (Boty et al., 2023;Pertiwi et al., 2023).This is evidenced by the colonization journey in the city.The self (Syahidah & Setiawati, 2019) .

Historical Transformation
This approximately 50-year-old building is   Some of the equipment in the mini Santa Maria museum is an antique bicycle complete with a health bag which was used by one of the sisters to visit the homes of people who could not reach the Santa Maria clinic.In addition, there is also a place to wash hands.We need to know that there used to be two kinds of hand washing places (Amboro, 2020).
Although the shape is the same, the two containers are not all filled with water.
The first hand washing container contains disinfectant liquid which functions to kill germs, so that the hands we wash there it can be maximized again by generation Z for example for historical education materials so that in the future interest and historical awareness in all circles will be well formed.
people.Especially in terms of history, the city of Metro is a city rich in cultural values with many relics of its predecessor buildings.There are several tourist attractions that are used as cultural heritage among the information house of doctor swooning, santa maria hospital, taqwa mosque, Metro city park, assistant wedana house and health center which is close to ahmad yani metro hospital.The presence of many historical sites made most of the community and people from outside metro began to visit these places so that they know in full about the origin and historical figures who used to contribute to the colonization in metro city.The opening of the Metro area was preceded by colonization that was carried out in 1932.Metro was formed starting from the construction of a new main village named Trimurjo (Karsiwan & Pujiati, 2018).Trimurjo has a meaningful meaning of three happiness's.This strongly refers to the water source consisting of the main lulon village which is divided into three irrigation lines.In addition, Trimurjo colonization was opened in 1936.This is very much related to the purpose of

has certainly been done by many previous researchers.However, research on the role of generation Z in recording time and historical transformation in the city of Metro Lampung has never been done(Rahmawati et al., 2022).The similar and relevant research in this research are as follows: 1) Identification of cultural heritage buildings as learning media in the city of Metro Lampung by Nahrul, Riska and Karsiwan in 2023, 2) The role of the millennial generation in utilizing and preserving museums in the city of Lubuklinggau by Sarkowi in 2020, 3) The use of documentary films as a source of historical learning in the process of learning historical social studies at SMP Ketapang by Juwarsi Sukraningsih in 2021, 4) The role of the younger generation as agents of change in order to build local cultural wisdom in the Tri Hita Karana teachings by Putu Sanjaya in 2020, 5) Traces of the ethical politics of the Dutch colonial government as an alternative learning resource in schools by Karsiwan in 2018 (Karsiwan, 2020).The Role of Generation Z in the Track Record of time…, Nahrul Mukholidah & Wardani, 573-582 experimental class uses a problem based learning model and the control class uses a discovery learning model.The population in this study were students in class XI of the social sciences (IIS) program at SMA Negeri 7 Tangerang Regency who were divided into five classes (Muhtarom & Robin, 2022).The method used in the research of the track record of time and historical transformation in Metro Lampung is the historical method.This research uses this method because the data, information and facts that have been obtained in past events and that have occurred before have been scattered in books, articles, documents and some historical relics, namely cultural heritage buildings in Metro Lampung as the object of research.In addition, this research on the In addition, this research on the transformation in the city of metro that researchers have used during this research process are as follows: 1) Heuristics, is a stage carried out in collecting and compiling historical data, 2) Historical criticism, is a step for us to investigate whether historical data is in the form of form or content data in accordance with the truth of the data, 3) Interpretation, is a step to provide interpretation and meaning regarding historical data and has a connection to facts that have been determined in the form of writing, 4) Histography, the state role of gen Z uses data collection in the form of interviews, documentation, and observation.This historical method can be used in order to have a clear picture of the changes and developments of the track record of time and historical of summarizing historical data that has been presence of these historical relics certainly invites the concern of the younger generation, one of which is generation Z, to be able to develop digital literacy in spreading the potential of local history in the area around them The presence of generation Z in this case can certainly help explore the transformation of history for the better.The metro area was originally still a wilderness land that had several beds in each area.Not only that, Metro was once used as a stopover for colonization from both Japan and the Netherlands and finally moved to the colonization that occurred in Bagelen, Gedung Tataan Lampung.But after that, the Javanese colonizers were then moved to Metro for the spread of agricultural areas so that the production of rice and other crops was more abundant.Not only that, Metro became an expansion area between Sukadana and Tegineneng.So when the colonists came on Saturday, April 4, 1936 and then placed on an empty land called Trimurjo.In this year, Trimurjo was a district city that is included in Gunung Sugih and has entered the Nuban clan.In addition, in this trimurjo area there are many colonists who come from Java.But because this area is isolated, they have no The Role of Generation Z in the Track Record of time…, Nahrul Mukholidah & Wardani, 573-582 DOI: 10.24127/hj.v12i2.9787578 influence from the Lampung community it located in front of Ahmad Yani Hospital, Metro Lampung.In ancient times before being used as a historical information house, RIS doctor swooning was rented by one of the people of metro city which was used as a restaurant.Even in the yard of the doctor swooning house it was still used as a parking lot for visitors to the Ahmad Yani hospital.But because of the support of the younger generation who work together with activists, the swooning doctor's house is now renovated into a place of historical education for all visitors who come and the Metro Lampung community (Setiawan, 2018).
