Construction of the mosque began in 1908. Its first roof was made of plant fibre, which was later replaced with zinc.
Since its founding the building has suffered considerable damage in earthquakes, notably in 1926 and 2009. It has nevertheless never undergone a large-scale restoration. The documented repairs are the correction of the minaret's tilt in 1975 and the replacement of the old floor ceramics with new ones around 1990.
The mosque was also used as a strategy centre during the struggle against Dutch colonial rule.
