history

Santun is an important south exit of Ruyang County. It used to be an important trade town in history.

In the spring and Autumn period, it belonged to Rong Manzi state, Liang County in the Northern Song Dynasty, and Yiyang County in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In 1944, it was the Second District of the county. In January 1948, the democratic government of Yiyang County moved from Fudian to Santun village and worked here for nearly a year. Santun commune was established in 1958, the township was changed in 1984, and the township was removed to build a town in 2011. After March 1949, it began to belong to Luoyang City, so the local conditions and customs of Ruyang are almost the same as those of Ruzhou.

Most of the local residents are descendants of Shanxi Hongdong immigrants in the early Ming Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty, the Santun basin was a swamp, where there was no smoke and there were many thorns. The first immigrants settled on the surrounding hillsides, while the later ones managed the swamp as land, and soon the swamp turned into good land.

Santun town is a red hot land with glorious revolutionary tradition. In the spring of 1938, Zhang Dequn, then Secretary of the working committee of Yiyang County of the Communist Party of China, carried out underground revolutionary activities in Santun, and successively developed Zhang Youqi, Zhang Quanbao and others to join the Communist Party of China. In 1940, Santun village and Dongbao village established the earliest grass-roots party organizations in the county. There are 32 grassroots party branches and 1267 party members.

Most of the residents believe in Taoism (Quanzhen Religion). Since the 1970s, more and more people believe in Christianity. The Hui people in Dongbao Village (more than 700 people) still believe in Islam, so the local three religions coexist and do not interfere with each other.

Economics

There are no large enterprises in the area, because it is located in mountainous areas and has mineral and forestry resources. In 2015, the number of migrant workers in the town reached 21661, with an annual labor income of 96 million yuan, and the per capita net income increased by 3268 yuan, which greatly increased residents' income, promoted residents' consumption, and further stimulated the development of township business.

In 1982, after adjustment, Santun high school was changed into a vocational high school, with 5 junior high schools and 25 primary schools reserved.

There is a middle school in the town - Santun Township Middle School. In recent years, with the rise of the tide of migrant workers, basic education has been hit hard and the drop out rate has risen sharply.

In history, the land was barren and the people were poor, and there were few literates. Cultural accumulation is relatively weak, so far it has not been able to breed great experts and scholars.
