Klaten (Indonesian: Klaten, pronounced [ˈklat̪ɛn]; Javanese: Klathèn) is a regency (kabupaten) in the Indonesian province of Central Java. Klaten is situated between the two major cities of Yogyakarta to its Southwest and Surakarta (colloquially known as Solo) to its Northeast. It covers an area of 701 km2 (271 sq mi) and as of 2025 has an estimated population of 1,304,428 (comprising 648,387 males and 656,081 females). The regency encompasses parts of Mount Merapi, Indonesia's most active volcano, whose eruptions have repeatedly affected Klaten's population. Klaten is home to several historical sites, including the 9th-century Buddhist Plaosan temple complex. The 9th-century Hindu Prambanan temple itself sits just outside the administrative border of Klaten, but large portions of the wider Prambanan Temple Compounds, a World Heritage Site that includes several more Hindu-Buddhist temple complexes in the vicinity of Prambanan, lie within Klaten regency. The regency's administrative centre is the town of the same name; which extends over 37 km2 (14 sq mi) and encompasses three of the regency's districts, with a combined total of 136,400 inhabitants in 2025; a fourth district (Kalikotes, with 38,786 inhabitants in 2025) is also part of the town area.
