Abstract

The Luwu Palace serves as a cultural emblem of the Bugis people, representing their traditional social hierarchy and political power. This study seeks to analyze the historical and physical evolution of the palace and its function in preserving Bugis identity in the context of colonial impact and contemporary development. The research utilizes a qualitative-descriptive methodology, incorporating literature review, visual analysis, and field observation. Data were gathered from historical documents, archival records, and direct observations. Research demonstrates that despite alterations in the palace's structure and purpose, its fundamental cultural values persist. The creation of the Langkanae replica and the adaptive repurposing of the palace into a museum demonstrate continuous endeavors to reinterpret and safeguard the Bugis cultural environment and identity in a modern setting.
