Jami Mosque of Taluak is one of the oldest mosques in Indonesia, located in Taluak IV Suku Nagari, Banuhampu District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. The location of the mosque is close to the border of Bukittinggi, thus it is also known as Jamik Taluak Mosque Bukittinggi. Construction of the mosque was initiated by Haji Abdul Majid in 1860, which was originally made with wooden roofs. The mosque had suffered some significant damages caused by earthquakes, most recently the 2007 Sumatra earthquake which resulted in severe damages of the mosque. Despite several improvements and repairing however, authenticity of the mosque is well maintained. The architecture of the mosque as a whole is influenced by the Minangkabau style. Arabic influence came later with the construction of minarets and facade. With its architecture, the mosque also became one of the most photographed mosques during the time of Dutch Colonization, and the photos are collected by Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands today. Nowadays, apart from being used for Islamic worshiping activities, this one-floor mosque is also used as a place for religious education for the community. It also has become one of the most well known tourist attractions in Agam Regency as well as in the city of Bukittinggi. Jamik Taluak Mosque Bukittinggi is currently under the management of the Archaeological Heritage Conservation Agency oversees West Sumatra, Riau and Riau Islands.
