Lu Xun Memorial Hall

Lu Xun Memorial Hall, Cultural monument in Shaoxing, China.

The Lu Xun Memorial Hall is a museum in Shaoxing dedicated to the life and work of this influential Chinese writer. The space displays a large collection of manuscripts, personal items, and photographs that document different periods of his life and career.

The memorial opened on 7 January 1951 in two houses on Shanyin Road, one of them Lu Xun's former Shanghai residence, making it the first memorial in the People's Republic dedicated to a single person. In October 1956, before the 20th anniversary of Lu Xun's death, his tomb was moved from the Shanghai International Cemetery to Lu Xun Park and a new hall was built there. The present building reopened on 1 August 1998, and admission became free on 10 March 2008.

The hall stands in Lu Xun Park, not in his native Shaoxing; the writer lived in Shanghai from 1933 until his death in 1936. Inside, the Chaohua Library holds relics of sixteen cultural figures who knew him, including Chen Wangdao, Xu Guangping and Ba Jin's calligraphy for the room's name. A bookshop on the second floor is named after the Uchiyama Bookstore, run in the Shanghai concessions by a Japanese friend of Lu Xun.

The hall stands inside Lu Xun Park at 200 Tian'ai Road in Hongkou District, Shanghai, not in Shaoxing. The permanent life exhibition covers over 1,000 square metres on the upper floor, where a bookshop named after the Uchiyama Bookstore sells Lu Xun titles. Admission has been free since 10 March 2008.

The museum was the first of its kind in the People's Republic and marks a distinctive moment in the country's cultural policy. Choosing to honor a modern writer through such an institution was an unusual decision at the time, reflecting the great importance assigned to this thinker.
