Gunung Gangsir Temple


Gunung Gangsir Temple seems to be a temple made of stone with red ornaments / relief the most. Unfortunately, not all ornaments that can be enjoyed now because most of these ornaments have been damaged. Come by local people who lost some jewelry as a result taken by the Japanese army in the colonial era in the past. Ornament or relief of the remaining intact, although not more, can still be enjoyed by visitors.
Ornament motif vase with a runner-runner who generally oft decorate other temples, can still be seen clearly. A noose body with the head of women who have lost either Crittenden also seen decorate the walls of the temple north. Various other forms of jewelry also decorate the body temple, which is at least able to confirm that this temple was surely a temple that is very interesting to see.

Standing over the wide area 62 x 24 meters, the temple has a spacious building with 20 meters long and 17 meters wide. There is a door to the temple that is difficult to be penetrated by pengujung because of the size small enough. First to try to enter, visitors must climb a ladder with a form that is not uniform again and just as dangerous vulnerable to landslides.

From the available literature on the location, this temple functions as a monument on the success of food crops by the people around in the past. It is estimated at up to the early 10 century, namely the local people not to know the pattern horticulturalists. Recognize patterns before horticulturalists, local people living with rogue countryman eat grass tuton.

A legend who live in the community about a recount that came when a permpuan called Nyi Sri Gati, which invites the nomadic ask petujuk on Hyang Widi to overcome the problem of food is always reduced. Until the time came on a countryman who brought Wren bird species of cereals. Bird then throw in rice and bran are then planted in the north of the temple.

Hobbes plants grow with the grain of rice paddy yield fruit, while the normal skin, and stone. This causes Nyi Sri Gati become rich and famous because kedermawanannya also with the name Mbok Rondo Dermo (Rondo = widow; Dermo = benefactor). Property owned attract the attention of traders and nomadic want to sell the stone to other areas. In the middle of the road, they obfuscate distributing goods in the boat. Owing to the strength of ghaib Nyi Sri Gati boat is sinking and darted into Mount Prau that is now located on the slopes of Mount Penanggungan (west of Melrose).

Not only the traders, the penjahatpun interested to have a wealth Nyi Sri Gati. Many who tried to confiscate / seize property Nyi Sri Gati, but all can be defeated. The names of criminals that eventually become the name of the village temple Gununggangsir, as an example: Keboireng, Wonokoyo, Pucang, Sobo, Kesemi, Kedatan and many more.

Irrespective of the truth or not, the legend, this temple until Gununggangsir still a sacred place for local residents.
