Juru kunci are the custodians of graveyards and other sacred places in Java, Indonesia. Literally, the name means "keepers of the keys". A notable exception from graveyards are the juru kunci who maintain a presence on the side of volcanoes. At many graveyards they are also the performers of tahlil and enforcers of the protocol of ziarah at their respective graveyards. When the graveyard has royal patronage the juru kunci is given a name, status, a very limited honorarium and is part of an extensive network of guardians over ancestral and sacred graves. Exemplary examples of the juru kunci at their most significant, are at Imogiri and Kota Gede. Here the two palaces share the responsibility over the relevant sections of the graveyard.
