Military Community Museum

The Military Community Museum spans three floors in a restored building with exhibits about life in military dependents' villages and their everyday routines. The rooms present information about the structure of these neighborhoods and how families lived together there.

The museum was founded in 2002 in a former environmental protection building and documents the settlement of military families after 1949. This housing arose from the need to accommodate civil service families and their dependents following a major relocation.

The exhibits display authentic objects donated by former residents of military dependents' villages, preserving memories of these tight-knit communities. Visitors see personal belongings and photographs that reflect everyday life in these neighborhoods.

The museum offers free admission and is open Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in an easily accessible building. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the three floors and their contents at a relaxed pace.

The museum has collected over one thousand pages of documentation about military dependents' villages in Hsinchu through digital preservation efforts. This extensive collection allows researchers and visitors to gain a detailed view of the history and development of these settlements.
