Nine segments rise towards the sky. They cradle a mangosteen, a symbol of the Tugu Manggis. This monument isn’t just a landmark. It’s a story etched in stone and steel. Tugu Manggis stands proudly at the intersection of Jalan Sakti Raya in Kemanggisan, Jakarta Barat. Its unique design sets it apart. It echoes the form of the iconic Monas, but with a distinct local twist. The mangosteen perched atop isn’t just decorative. It represents the very name of this Kelurahan, Kemanggisan. This monument was brought to life on September 9, 2013. It was inaugurated by the West Jakarta Mayor, H. Fatahillah. The nine segments of the Tugu Manggis hold a special meaning. They symbolize the nine RW (Neighborhood Associations) that make up Kemanggisan. This detail reflects the community’s integral role in the monument’s creation. The Tugu Manggis is more than just a structure. It is a testament to the collaborative spirit of Kemanggisan’s residents. They worked together to bring this symbol of their identity to life. The monument stands as a proud reminder of their shared history and unity. It is a unique landmark in Jakarta. Perhaps the only Kelurahan to boast a monument so deeply intertwined with its name and community.
