Dinh Dam Xuyen

Dinh Dam Xuyen

Dam Xuyen communal house is located in Tien Chau commune, Phuc Yen town, Vinh Phuc province. The communal house worships 3 gods: Cao Bi Hung Thanh Dai Vuong; Duong Uy Phan Vu Dai Vuong and Princess Thuy Tinh Than. The communal house is located on a land area of ​​about 1,000m², with a construction area of ​​220m², facing southwest. The communal house consists of three main parts: the main communal house, the harem and the rear altar, forming the shape of the letter "Cong", a typical architectural style common in ancient temples and pagodas of Vietnam. The communal house is built of ancient square bricks, with a tiled roof with a funny nose and a sword head shaped like a rolled dragon, expressing majesty and tradition. The door system has convenient bars, helping the space inside the house to always be airy. The great communal house (front altar) has 5 compartments, where important ceremonies take place; The posthumous court has 3 rooms, and the harem has 2 rooms, which is the main place of worship. All columns and trusses in the communal house are made of ironwood, a type of wood famous for its high durability, bringing stability to the building. The communal house's wood carving art is very elaborate and sophisticated, taking the theme from the four sacred animals: Dragon, Lan, Quy, Phuong, symbols of prosperity and power. In particular, the carvings on the 4 "ports" in a "loose" style with a rolling dragon image are done in a soft, flexible way, clearly showing the charisma of the dragon rolling up and flying, creating an image lively and strong. In addition, some other carved details on the front and rafter panels such as the scene of "lion playing bridge" and "tung loc and apricot bird" bring vividness and excitement, demonstrating the talent of the artisans. . These details are not only aesthetic highlights but also reflect traditional cultural and artistic values, making an important contribution to preserving and promoting the architectural heritage of Vietnamese village communal houses. The existence of Dam Xuyen communal house is a testament to the creativity and enthusiasm of the ancients, while affirming the importance of preserving and developing national cultural values. Currently, Dam Xuyen village communal house still preserves three altar thrones, including one grandmother's throne and two grandfather's thrones, all of which are exquisitely painted and gilded. In the royal court, three ancient couplets dating back hundreds of years are still preserved. The communal house also has two palanquins, one of which belongs to the Le Dynasty and one belongs to the Minh Mang Dynasty. Notably, the remaining stone artifact is a stele established in the year Tu Duc 1870, recording the stories of the three gods worshiped at the communal house. In addition, the communal house also preserves eight ordinations, most from the Nguyen Dynasty (1810-1924). These artifacts not only have historical value but also reflect the culture and beliefs of the community over the centuries. The artifacts at Dam Xuyen communal house are not only symbols of tradition and respect but also evidence of the continuity of local culture in the flow of history.
