The origin of history

Li Dazhao memorial hall, built in 1881, was supervised by Li Ruzhen, Li Dazhao's great grandfather. The former residence faces south in a rectangular shape. The high terrace, the big black door, and the three entry courtyard are typical of the pattern of rural households in Eastern Hebei Province. They are 55.5 meters long from north to South and 18.2 meters wide from east to west, covering an area of 1010.1 square meters. Between the gate and the second gate is the front yard. There are three rooms in the East chamber, which used to be the school of Li Renyuan, Li Dazhao's uncle. The second entrance is the central courtyard.

On October 29, 1889 (the sixth day of October in the 15th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty), Comrade Li Dazhao was born in the north room of the East Chamber of this courtyard. To the north of the courtyard are six connected main rooms. To the East are three rooms where Comrade Li Dazhao lived for a long time. The back door of the main house is the back house. The east courtyard of the back house has two East rooms and two open shed. In his childhood, Dazhao used to read, write and write in this room for the sake of quietness.

Therefore, it is also called Li Dazhao's childhood study. The shed was used for putting farm tools and preparing sundries at home. From south to north, the West courtyard of the former residence memorial hall was originally the property of Li Rubi, Li Dazhao's third grandfather. Now it has also been restored and displayed, and there is an exhibition of Li Dazhao's personality.

Entering the memorial hall, there are eight pillars of merit. The merit column is 3.8 meters high, 6-prism shaped, inlaid with light red rough granite. The upper end of the strong column is carved with the design of the party flag and emblem. Eight achievement pillars, occupying eight squares, form a circle, symbolizing Li Dazhao's great achievements in the history of Chinese revolution. Li Dazhao's eight great achievements are as follows:
