Monument of Wuniulan War, War memorial in Nancun Village, Taiwan.
The Monument of Wuniulan War is a stone memorial with inscriptions documenting the events of March 16, 1947. It stands in Nancun Village and serves as a focal point for remembering that day.
The memorial commemorates the Battle of Wuniulan, where students led by Huang Chin-tao resisted government forces. This clash was part of the broader 1947 uprising that shook Taiwan.
The name Wuniulan refers to the locality where these events unfolded. Today, people come here to remember and understand what happened during that turbulent period.
Visitors can reach the memorial by following the marked paths through Nancun Village. Informational panels on-site help explain the historical context in simple terms.
The memorial was not built until 2004, nearly 60 years after the events it honors. A sister monument exists elsewhere in Taiwan, both dedicated to the resistance efforts of the 27th Brigade.
