Jami Mosque of Taluak, Historic mosque in Taluak Ampek Suku, Indonesia.
The Jami Mosque of Taluak stands with a prominent minaret featuring Persian patterns, Arabesque calligraphy, and an Indian-style onion dome roof.
The mosque, constructed in 1860 by Haji Abdul Majid, initially featured wooden roofs and underwent repairs following the 2007 Sumatra earthquake.
The architectural design combines Minangkabau influences with Arabic elements, reflecting the fusion of Indonesian and Islamic architectural traditions.
The main prayer room measures 13 square meters and includes a southeast-facing porch with walls and windows connecting exterior and interior spaces.
The standalone minaret, known locally as manaruh or lighthouse, contains three sections with a spiral staircase leading to its distinctive dome.
