Former Site of the Shayang “May 7th” Cadre School

　　   It is situated on the campus of the Shayang Police Academy in Fanjiatai, Shayang County. Between 1969 and 1979, dozens of institutions including central government agencies, Hubei provincial party and government bodies, and some higher education institutions successively established “May 7th” Cadre Schools here. Over 20,000 cadres and their family members worked, labored, and lived at the site, among them a large number of party and government leaders and well-known figures. In February 1979, all “May 7th” Cadre Schools were abolished, marking a 10-year period. Well-preserved structures include the former site of the Ministry of Finance’s “May 7th” Cadre School, as well as those of the Supreme People’s Court, Supreme People’s Procuratorate, and Ministry of Public Security. The site features surviving red-brick bungalows or two-story buildings, a large dining hall, a water tower, and remnants of the quarry where school members engaged in production work. It is currently the most completely preserved “May 7th” Cadre School and holds significant historical value. (Fifth Batch)
