Wenhua Pagoda

Wenhua Pagoda is a cultural tourism attraction.

Wenhua Pagoda was originally built in the fourth year of the Dazhong era during the Tang Dynasty. Located in the county town, it was relocated to this site during the Jiaqing era of the Qing Dynasty. It is currently the only well-preserved ancient pagoda within the Jiujiang area and is also quite rare in the Jiangnan region. The seven-story, hexagonal pagoda stands 21 meters tall and is entirely constructed from blue bricks. It features a gourd-shaped finial at the top, a hollow interior, and a wooden staircase leading up. The top of the pagoda is built with layered bricks that taper inward. It is said that this pagoda is the "town pagoda" of De’an County and is closely tied to the prosperity of De’an. There is a saying: “When the pagoda thrives, the county thrives; when the pagoda declines, the county declines.”
