About

First built as Masjid Jami' Sidoarjo in the regency's founding years, it took its present name after improvements finished in 1895. The original hall keeps a tiered joglo roof instead of a big dome, and the founders' family graves lie in the grounds. The site was spruced up in 2025; dress modestly and avoid Friday midday prayers if you are just visiting.
