It is the main market town along the western slopes of Mount Merapi volcano in central Java, within the administrative ambit of the regional government in Magelang. ==History== The adjacent country side has had many villages with pesantren and strong allegiance to the more stricter form of Islam compared to that of the country closer to the Kraton palaces of Surakarta and Yogyakarta. The Jesuits have had a long presence in this town, having a school 〔(SMA Pangudi Luhur Van Lith )〕 seminary and a necropolis containing the remains of many of their earlier members.〔Petrus Josephus Zoetmulder being a more recent internee〕 During the Second World War, Muntilan was the site of a Japanese prisoner of war camp which contained many Dutch families. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muntilan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
