Kraton Kanoman

{{Short description|Palace in Indonesia}}

File:COLLECTIE TROPENMUSEUM Kinderen voor de poort van de kraton Kanoman Cheribon TMnr 60005192.jpgKraton Kanoman is a palace in the Indonesian city of Cirebon in West Java.

It was founded by Sultan Anom I in 1677. In the outer area of the palace, the siti inggil, are masonry versions of the classic Javanese pendopo form, as opposed to the more conventional timber structures. Like the Great Mosque in Demak, Chinese ceramics are embedded into the plastered walls. The squat split-gates with pyramidal peaks are a Cirebon emblem.
