Peng Dehuai Residence, Traditional folk residence in Xiangtan County, China

The Peng Dehuai Residence is a traditional folk dwelling in Hunan Province with several preserved structures from different periods. The complex includes original houses, a memorial space, and an ancestral temple that together show the daily life of an important historical family.

The complex was built in 1925 and is linked to a Chinese military leader who later faced difficulties due to his criticism of economic policies. The structures date from a time of major changes in modern Chinese history.

The residence is named after Peng Dehuai, who was born here on 24 October 1898. In 1982, Deng Xiaoping wrote the inscription "Comrade Peng Dehuai's Former Residence" for the main gate. Since 1983 the site has been open to domestic visitors, and in 2001 it was also designated a National Patriotic Education Base.

The residence stands in Pengjia Weizi, Wushi Village, Wushi Town, Xiangtan County, Hunan. It opened to domestic visitors on 1 August 1983. The brick-and-wood house faces southeast, so the main facade catches morning light; the 17 rooms are arranged around the central hall.

The original three-room thatched hut stood about 30 metres northeast of today's building; Peng Dehuai was born there on 24 October 1898. The present 17-room brick-and-timber house was added in 1925 with money he earned as a battalion commander in the Hunan army.
