Tugu Keris

Tugu Keris is an aluminum and steel structure shaped like a traditional Malay dagger located at a major roundabout in Klang. The monument rises prominently and can be seen from various directions throughout the city.

The monument was commissioned in 1985 by the Sultan of Selangor to mark the silver jubilee of his reign over the state. This gesture marked a significant moment in local history.

The monument honors the keris, a traditional blade deeply connected to Malay nobility and warrior customs that remain part of local identity. This weapon appears frequently in ceremonies and community stories.

The monument stands at a central roundabout and is easy to reach from various parts of the city. Visitors should be aware of traffic around the roundabout when exploring the area.

In 2014, the entire structure was relocated from its original position to increase visibility for residents and visitors. This relocation helped the monument become better integrated into the urban landscape.
