Takalar, Administrative regency in South Sulawesi, Indonesia

Takalar Regency spans 566.51 square kilometers across South Sulawesi, incorporating both mainland territories and the Tanakeke Islands along the coast.

The regency emerged as an independent administrative division from the Makassar autonomous region in 1960, marking a significant change in local governance.

The population of 326,044 residents maintains traditional practices across 86 rural desa and 24 urban kelurahan within twelve distinct districts.

The administrative center in Pattallassang coordinates services for the northern urbanized coastal strip and the larger southern rural districts.

A railway connection operated between Takalar and Makassar from 1922 to 1930, representing an early transportation network in South Sulawesi.
