(BNP) - The Ngo Gia Tu Memorial House is located in Tam Son neighborhood, Tam Son ward, Bac Ninh province. This is the birthplace, childhood home, and revolutionary base of Comrade Ngo Gia Tu - a pioneering leader of the Party, an outstanding disciple of President Ho Chi Minh, and an exemplary son of Bac Ninh province. Today, the Ngo Gia Tu Memorial House has become a significant site for educating the younger generation and all segments of the population about revolutionary traditions.


 

Comrade Ngo Gia Tu's father, Mr. Ngo Gia Du, built the entire complex in the first year of the Khai Dinh era (i.e., 1916), and it consists of the following structures: the main house, the electrical house, the side house, the schoolhouse, the agricultural tools house, and a garden that is lush and green all year.

The entrance gate to the Memorial House still retains its original architectural style.

The words "Gate like a market" are embossed on the top of the gate, reflecting the great ambitions of the young generation of Comrade Ngo Gia Tu.


 

Previously, the three-room schoolhouse with a tile roof served as a family guesthouse. Comrade Ngo Gia Tu returned to his hometown from Buoi School in 1926, using the guesthouse to hold classes and propagate revolutionary principles among the locals and youth.

A statue of Comrade Ngo Gia Tu is prominently displayed in the central hall. Above it is the "Recognition of Service to the Fatherland" certificate.

The house is the residence of Comrade Ngo Gia Tu's family.

The central hall is dedicated to the worship of Ngo Gia Tu's father and comrade.


Many portraits of the Party's senior leaders and artifacts are preserved.

To the right of the School building is a row of buildings housing agricultural tools, consisting of five tiled-roof houses.

This is where the family of Comrade Ngo Gia Tu keeps their everyday farming tools.

The water tank used daily by Comrade Ngo Gia Tu's family remains completely intact.


A commemorative plaque marks the location where Comrade Ngo Gia Tu resided as a youngster and took out revolutionary actions from 1926 to 1928.


 

Every year, delegations of leaders from all levels of the Party, State, and Bac Ninh province, as well as a large number of officials, teachers, students, youth union members, and the general public, gather to offer incense and pay tribute to Comrade Ngo Gia Tu, one of the founders of the Indochinese Communist Party, the predecessor of the Vietnamese Communist Party.


 

The Ngo Gia Tu Memorial House complex has been recognized by the State as a National Historical and Cultural Monument according to Decision No. 100-VH/QH dated January 21, 1989.


 

Ngo Gia Tu Park is located about 1 kilometer from the Ngo Gia Tu Memorial Area and acts as a cultural hub for the locals.
