Kota Bukittinggi mulai berdiri seiring dengan kedatangan Belanda yang kemudian mendirikan kubu pertahanan pada tahun 1825 pada masa Perang Padri di salah satu bukit yang terdapat dalam kota ini, dikenal sebagai Benteng Fort de Kock, sekaligus menjadi tempat peristirahatan opsir-opsir Belanda yang berada di wilayah jajahannya. Kemudian pada masa pemerintahan Hindia-Belanda, kawasan ini selalu ditingkatkan perannya dalam ketatanegaraan yang kemudian berkembang menjadi sebuah Stadsgemeente (kota), dan juga berfungsi sebagai ibukota Afdeeling Padangsche Bovenlanden dan Onderafdeeling Oud Agam.
Pada masa pendudukan Jepang, Kota Bukittinggi dijadikan sebagai pusat pengendalian pemerintahan militernya untuk kawasanSumatera, bahkan sampai ke Singapura dan Thailand, di mana pada kota ini menjadi tempat kedudukan komandan militer ke 25Kenpeitai, di bawah pimpinan Mayor Jenderal Hirano Toyoji. Kemudian kota ini berganti nama dari Stadsgemeente Fort de Kockmenjadi Bukittinggi Si Yaku Sho yang daerahnya diperluas dengan memasukkan nagari-nagari sekitarnya seperti Sianok Anam Suku,Gadut, Kapau, Ampang Gadang, Batu Taba dan Bukit Batabuah. Sekarang nagari-nagari tersebut masuk ke dalam wilayah Kabupaten Agam.
Setelah kemerdekaan Indonesia, Bukittinggi dipilih menjadi ibukota Provinsi Sumatera, dengan gubernurnya Mr. Teuku Muhammad Hasan. Kemudian Bukittinggi juga ditetapkan sebagai wilayah pemerintahan kota berdasarkan Ketetapan Gubernur Provinsi Sumatera Nomor 391 tanggal 9 Juni 1947.
Pada masa mempertahankan kemerdekaan Indonesia, Kota Bukitinggi berperan sebagai kota perjuangan, di mana pada tanggal 19 Desember 1948, kota ini ditunjuk sebagai ibukota negara Indonesia setelah Yogyakarta jatuh ke tangan Belanda atau dikenal denganPemerintahan Darurat Republik Indonesia (PDRI). Dikemudian hari, peristiwa ini ditetapkan sebagai Hari Bela Negara, berdasarkan Keputusan Presiden Republik Indonesia Nomor 28 Tahun 2006 tanggal 18 Desember 2006.
Selanjutnya Kota Bukittinggi menjadi Kota Besar berdasarkan Undang-undang Nomor 9 Tahun 1956 tentang pembentukan daerah otonom kota besar dalam lingkungan daerah provinsi Sumatera Tengah masa itu, yang meliputi wilayah provinsi Sumatera Barat,Jambi, Riau dan Kepulauan Riau sekarang.
Walaupun setelah dikeluarkannya Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 84 Tahun 1999 sebagai dasar hukum baru pemerintahan daerah Kota Bukittinggi namun dalam implementasinya sampai sekarang masih belum dapat dilaksanakan.
