Mibouw was a fortified Acehnese village settlement and earthen redoubt located near Pekan Badak and Sinangri on the border of the IV Moekims in modern Banda Aceh, Indonesia.
Storming of Mibouw in December 1875
Guarding the northern approach to the Blankala Pass, Mibouw was heavily garrisoned by Acehnese forces who harassed Dutch transport lines throughout 1875.
On 26 December 1875, General J. L. J. H. Pel opened General Pel’s Campaign in Aceh by launching the Attack on Mibouw. Two battalions of Barissans of Bangkallan and the 6th Infantry Battalion stormed the earthworks, capturing the settlement at the cost of two killed and twelve wounded, thereby opening the road to the interior mukims.
