Dai Dinh Holy House is located in hamlet 9, Thanh Van commune (center of the ancient Dai Dinh village) and was built hundreds of years ago, consisting of two upper and lower buildings, made of ironwood, roofed with yin-yang tiles.
Dai Dinh Holy House is a religious structure built by the people to worship Confucius and the village's sages, scholars, and scholars; it is a place where people come to pray for blessings, good grades, favorable weather, and good crops... During the French colonial years, the Holy House was also an important secret base of operations for the revolution.
Over hundreds of years of existence, after many restorations and embellishments, Dai Dinh Holy House still retains its ancient architecture and many ancient artifacts and sacrificial objects; it is a testament and symbol of a countryside with a long-standing cultural tradition.
With those values, Dai Dinh Holy House was recognized by Nghe An Provincial People's Committee as a Provincial Historical Relic according to Decision No. 6391/QD - UBND, signed on December 15, 2016.
