History

[edit]

According to some written texts, such as Tulisan Babad;[9] the movement of Ngrowo governance in year 1824 also changed the Ngrowo city territory with border marked with four Reca Pentung statues on all four side of Ngrowo. This movement changed the governance name from Pemerintahan Ngrowo di Kalangbret (English: Ngrowo Governance in Kalangbret) to Pemerintahan Ngrowo di Tulungagung (English: Ngrowo Governance in Tulungagung).[9][10][3] The city center location was decided by looking at the center of four Reco Pentung location which is Tulungagung city center in modern-day Tulungagung. Pendapa Tulungagung was built in the Northern part of city center as in RMT. Pringgodiningrat's order as place for Pendopo Kadipaten (Governance site). This building complex was then used as Governments office until now.[9][11]

Pendapa Tulungagung got its other name, "Pendopo Kongras Arum Kusimaning Bongso" on the Ir. Heru Tjahjono, MM. governance era.[12]
