==History of volcanic activity==
A study conducted in 2001 determined that Tangkuban Perahu had erupted at least 30 times in the previous 40,750 years. Studies of the [[tephra]] layers within three kilometres of the crater revealed that 21 were minor eruptions and the remaining were significant eruptions. The eruptions that occurred before approximately 10,000 years ago were [[Types of volcanic eruptions#Magmatic eruptions|magmatic]]/[[Types of volcanic eruptions#Phreatomagmatic eruptions|phreatomagmatic]], and the ones that occurred after 10,000 years ago were [[Types of volcanic eruptions#Phreatic eruptions|phreatic]].<ref>Kartadinata, Okuno, Nakamura & Kobayashi, [http://www.geog.or.jp/journal/back/pdf111-3/p404-409.pdf Eruptive History of Tangkuban Perahu Volcano, West Java, Indonesia : A Preliminary Report] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060823232638/http://www.geog.or.jp/journal/back/pdf111-3/p404-409.pdf |date=2006-08-23 }}, [[Journal of Geography]], 2001</ref> The volcano erupted as recently as 26 July 2019.<ref>[http://www.volcano.si.edu/volcano.cfm?vn=263090&tab=1#October2013 Smithsonian Institution Global Volcanism Program]</ref> On 2 August 2019, the volcano experienced eight minor eruptions, and as a result, the place was closed down for visitors, but is open again.
