Jabba's Palace/Legends

Jabba's Palace, made of stone and metal, was located in the desert known as the Dune Sea on the planet of Tatooine. While Jabba's home was on Nal Hutta, he used his Tatooine palace as a base of operations for his business ventures on that planet.

The palace was originally a monastery built 700 years BBY by a strict religious order called the B'omarr Monks. The massive compound was built on a remote world, far from any settlements, so as to amplify the Monks’ detachment from the universe. This environment allowed them to concentrate on their studies, furthering their goal of complete disconnection from all external sensation. 150 years after its construction it was discovered by the outcast and rogue Alkhara, who began to use it as a base of operations. The Monks by and large ignored him, and the two groups cohabitated peacefully for 34 years. Eventually, Jabba discovered the fortress as well, and forced Alkhara out in 516 BBY.

Jabba equipped the palace with a number of security devices, including a semi-intelligent droid gatewatcher built into the main entrance. This droid, little more than an electronic eye on a stick embedded in the gate itself, would interrogate visitors before deciding whether to allow them to enter. Jabba's major domo, Bib Fortuna, would usually also interrogate visitors who got this far before allowing them an audience with Jabba himself. Jabba also employed Gamorrean guards to act as his bodyguards and security force. He also built a hangar bay to house his sail barge, Khetanna, and numerous repulsor skiffs.

After Jabba's death, the government of Tatooine briefly turned it into the Tatooine Retirement Home for Aged Aliens; however, budget shortages made it close down soon after.

Jabba's audience chamber


Jabba would recline on a huge dais in his audience chamber, surrounded by a motley crew of bounty hunters (sometimes including Boba Fett and Zuckuss) and other criminals seeking his favor. His every whim was catered to, with live animals such as gorks and Klatooine paddy frogs to eat, concerts from musicians, dancing girls (often providing more than just dance) and Salacious Crumb, his court jester.

However, sometimes things could have gotten intense. Some guests (such as Boushh—Princess Leia in disguise, Luke Skywalker, Gardulla the Hutt, and Ki-Adi-Mundi) would threaten the Hutt or hold out dangerous weapons that caused havoc in the chamber. The guests, if bothersome to Jabba, would be thrown into the rancor pit, by pressing a button by his Hookah pipe. There the chamber guests could watch an unwanted being get swallowed down by the fierce monster (such as Oola, the slave girl).

To satisfy his enormous appetite, a rotisserie capable of cooking gigantic portions of meat was installed directly behind Jabba's dais.

A corner alcove of the audience chamber housed Jabba's trophies. For a short time, among these was the form of Han Solo, frozen in carbonite. On either side of the carbonite trophy were stuffed animal heads, one being the head of a Tauntaun.
