The Lost City of the Jedi was a secret underground city on Yavin 4 built by the Jedi shortly after the Great Sith War, in order to help restore the moon's ecosystem following the defeat of Exar Kun. The city also had the unintended side-effect of keeping Kun's spirit largely trapped in his temple.
After its founding, droids took over the care-taking of the fort. It was later forgotten in all but legend.
An unknown brown-robed Jedi Master, who could have been Obi-Wan Kenobi, would later bring Ken, the supposed grandson of Emperor Palpatine, to the city to keep him safe.
The last that anyone saw of the Lost City of the Jedi was when the Grand Computer was destroyed by blaster fire in 5 ABY, leaving Supreme Prophet Kadann, DJ-88 and other Prophets and stormtroopers inside the crumbling city. Although they escaped, the city had been damaged enough that Exar Kun was now free to wander the entire moon.
