History

The Banyusumurup graveyard, which is located in a remote valley in the Imogiri area, is a burial site for people who were considered enemies of the state by Amangkurat I, Prince Pekik. In this tomb complex, there are silent witnesses to various intrigues with a background of power struggles and even love struggles between father and child.[4]

The roof of this mosque previously used bamboo, but has now been replaced with tiles . There are original historical remains in this mosque, namely the drum and mustaka which are still firmly installed. In 2000 renovations were carried out, starting from replacing cement - coated tiles with ceramic - coated tiles.[3][5]
