Xiamen Revolutionary Martyrs'事迹 Exhibition Hall

The Xiamen Revolutionary Martyrs'事迹 Exhibition Hall is a patriotic education base.

The Xiamen Revolutionary Martyrs'事迹 Exhibition Hall is located at No. 1 Huyuan Road, Kaiyuan Subdistrict, Siming District, Xiamen, at the northeast corner of the Xiamen Martyrs' Cemetery.

Xiamen is a scenic coastal city with a long line of heroes. During different historical phases of China’s revolution, countless loyal and courageous revolutionary martyrs gave their lives and fought bravely in successive battles, composing moving and heroic epics. To honor these martyrs, educate future generations to carry forward the revolutionary tradition, and continue the unfinished missions left by the martyrs, this exhibition hall was established. Opened on October 17, 1989, the building’s architecture resembles a fluttering red flag. Its exterior is built with granite strips, and the two-story structure is slightly higher at the back. The stone wall above the front entrance features the hall’s name inscribed by Ye Fei, former Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. Six aluminum alloy doors with brown-tinted glass add a solemn atmosphere to the exhibition hall. The display area covers 600 square meters and consists of four exhibition rooms. The first room displays a group sculpture and murals that artistically combine two revolutionary historical events—the Xiamen Prison Break and the PLA’s amphibious assault to liberate Xiamen—reflecting the theme of Xiamen’s liberation. The second room features a preface, inscriptions by leaders, and a roster of Xiamen revolutionary martyrs, including calligraphy by Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, and others, as well as a documented list of over 1,700 revolutionary martyrs from Xiamen. The third room showcases the deeds of 38 representative martyrs who had significant impact, displaying 195 photos of the martyrs and their activities, along with some physical artifacts, most of which are original photos. The fourth room is the Memorial Hall, divided into three sections: Honoring the Martyrs, Providing for Martyrs’ Families, and Mourning the Fallen.

The Xiamen Revolutionary Martyrs'事迹 Exhibition Hall is a patriotic education base and a provincial- and municipal-level cultural heritage protection unit.
