History

Buton Palace Fort was built in the 16th century by Sultan Buton III named La Sangaji, titled Sultan Kaimuddin (1591-1596). Initially, the fort was only built in the form of a pile of stones arranged around the palace complex with the aim of making a fence between the palace complex and the community as well as a defensive castle. During the reign of Sultan Buton IV named La Elangi or Sultan Dayanu Ikhsanuddin, the fort in the form of a pile of stones was made a permanent building.
