Monument for Founding of Yilan County, Historical memorial in Yilan City, Taiwan.
The Monument for Founding of Yilan County stands as a historical structure combining Japanese wooden house elements with Western classical architectural features.
The monument, inaugurated on October 10, 1960, marks the establishment of Yilan County and occupies the former site of magistrates' official residence.
The memorial displays comprehensive exhibits documenting the development of local governance and regional heritage through different historical periods in Taiwan.
Located within walking distance from Yilan Station, the memorial opens Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, except month-end days.
A century-old camphor tree in the memorial garden influenced preservation decisions when urban renewal projects threatened the historical structure.
