Thuan Trung Communal House, Hat Mon Commune

THUAN TRUNG COMMUNAL HOUSE - CITY-LEVEL HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL RELIC

Thuan Trung Communal House is located in Thuan Trung Village, Hat Mon Commune, Hanoi City. The communal house has a Dinh-shaped structure, including main components: Nghi Mon (ceremonial gate), Dai Bai (main hall), and Hau Cung (rear sanctuary). Over time, war, and natural disasters, the old communal house deteriorated and was dismantled; in 2005, local people contributed labor and funds to restore the communal house on its old foundation.

The communal house worships Cao Son Dai Vuong, a general of King Hung Due Vuong, who had meritorious service in fighting enemies and helping the people develop production. The communal house also has revolutionary historical value, having once been a place to hide cadres during the resistance war against the French; in the period 1964–1972, it was a place where central cadres met to discuss strategies and also organized activities to mobilize the people to contribute to the cause of liberating the South.

The traditional festival is held on the 10th day of the 3rd lunar month every year with rituals, ceremonies, cultural activities, and folk games.

With its outstanding values, Thuan Trung Communal House was ranked as a city-level relic in 2011.
