The writing of this article uses the historical method through the stages of: heuristics, verification/criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The results of this study indicate that the name Saribu Gadang House was given when Mrs. Meutia Hatta Swasono, State Minister for Women's Empowerment came to visit Koto Baru in 2008. Seeing this as a very step and unique thing because there were many gadang houses close to each other, Mrs. Moetia Hatta gave the nickname Nagari Koto Baru as Saribu Rumah Gadang. Since being given this nickname, the name Saribu Rumah Gadang has become more popular and known by many people. After the development in Nagari Saribu, the Gadang House became a tourist area in South Solok, this caused a change in function, the Gadang House, which was originally a cultural heritage, turned into an object of business facilities.
