Gapura Keraton Kaibon

Keraton Kaibon lies about one kilometer from the Banten Grand Mosque. The name Kaibon, which means "mother". The premises were broken into at the order of Dutch Governor-General Daendels in 1813--subsequently ending the sultan's reign and then damaged by the Dutch in 1832. Today, the ancient walls, foundations, the gateway and main gate bear truth to the once powerful Banten Sultanate.
