Abstract

This article aims to discuss the preservation and conservation of historical sites in Natal District, Mandailing Natal Regency. The Mandailing Natal region boasts a wealth of cultural heritage in the form of various historical sites. However, the current condition of these historical structures is deeply concerning, necessitating urgent restoration and maintenance efforts. This article employs a qualitative research approach with a descriptive method. The research methodology utilized the historical method, consisting of four stages: heuristics, verification or criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The research findings reveal that the local community, including the Department of Culture and Tourism, has started to recognize the significance of historical sites in Natal District. Nevertheless, concrete measures to safeguard and preserve the heritage within the Mandailing Natal region, particularly in Natal District, have yet to materialize. Therefore, an active role from both the community and the government is imperative to protect and conserve these historical relics, ensuring that they can be cherished by future generations.

Abstract

This research investigates the role of Islamic communities in preserving historical buildings in Sei Glugur Village, Pancur Batu Sub-district, Deli Serdang Regency. The study addresses how the Muslim community maintains its cultural identity through these preservation efforts. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected via observations, interviews with key informants, including the Village Head and building caretakers, as well as documentation. Guided by Indonesian Law No. 11 of 2010 on Cultural Heritage, the research reveals the community’s active role in utilizing and maintaining historical buildings. For example, the Sri Maha Laksmi Temple is still functional, a logistics warehouse was repurposed as a public school, and a Dutch-era house became the Al-Istiqomah Mosque. Factors such as the community’s long-term residence and hereditary ties to colonial-era workers contribute to their preservation awareness. However, some buildings, including the administration office and tobacco warehouse, remain underutilized. The study concludes that community-government partnerships are essential to optimize the use and preservation of these structures. Recommendations include allocating resources for adaptive reuse and emphasizing cultural tourism and local identity enhancement.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the historical trajectory and socio-cultural influence of the Kualuh Sultanate in Tanjung Pasir Village, North Labuhanbatu Regency, during the period of 1829–1937. Employing a historical method within a social history framework, the research draws on data collected through interviews, direct observations, and analysis of both primary and secondary sources. The findings reveal that the Kualuh Sultanate had a significant historical connection with the Sultanate of Asahan and played a crucial role in the spread of Islam, the construction of religious institutions such as mosques, and the formation of local identity among the surrounding communities. One of the most prominent legacies is the Grand Mosque of Alhadji Muhammad Syah, which serves as a lasting symbol of the sultanate's cultural and religious influence. This research underscores the importance of preserving local historical heritage and highlights its contribution to a broader understanding of regional history in North Sumatra.
