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.

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.
