The Pecinan Tinggi Mosque is a vital historical site and cultural heritage location in Banten, serving as a powerful symbol of early tolerance and the rich cultural fusion between the Chinese community and the Islamic faith in Indonesia. Dating back to the era of the Banten Sultanate, possibly founded as early as 1552 by Syarif Hidayatullah (Sunan Gunung Jati) and later continued by Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin, this mosque was specifically established for the Chinese Muslim community residing in the Pecinan (Chinatown) area during Banten's peak as a major international trading port.
