Red Crag Spirit Exhibition Hall

　　The Red Crag Spirit Exhibition Hall was built in 1963 on the former site of the parade ground of the "Sino-American Cooperative Organization." Its original name at the time of establishment was the "Exhibition Hall of Crimes Committed by the American and Kuomintang Authorities at the Chongqing Sino-American Cooperative Organization Concentration Camp." As the influence of the "Red Crag Spirit" exhibition expanded nationwide, the hall was renamed the "Red Crag Spirit Exhibition Hall" in 1999. The name of the exhibition was also changed from the original "Eternal Loyalty in Gele — A Generation of Heroes: A Historical Exhibition of the Sino-American Cooperative Organization and the Military Statistics Bureau Concentration Camps" to "Red Crag Spirit — The Struggle and Deeds of Revolutionary Martyrs at Bai Mansion and Zhazidong." The exhibition is divided into: I. The 11·27 Massacre Semi-Scene Painting Hall. II. Photo and Cultural Relics Exhibition. It is divided into seven sections: 1. A World of Confinement 2. Valor That Never Covets Life — Party and People Above All 3. Willing to Shed My Blood for the Land, For Eternal Peace in China 4. Failure Turns to Yellow Earth, Success Brings Relief to the People 5. Testimonies of Blood and Tears 6. Immortality in the Flames 7. Martyrs’ Blood Unites Hearts Across Generations.
