The Nantou County Culture Park (NCCP; traditional Chinese: 南投縣文化園區; simplified Chinese: 南投县文化园区; pinyin: Nántóu Xiàn Wénhuà Yuánqū) is a historical building in Nantou City, Nantou County, Taiwan.
History[edit]
The park's main building, County History Hall, was built in 1937 as the Wude Temple. The structure later served various purposes, such as a butokuden, a police department and other government offices.
In December 1996, the preparatory office to establish the venue was set up.[1] The area was unveiled as Nantou County History Hall in 1997 but soon later it was closed due to 921 earthquake in 1999. After a year of reparation, it was reopened to the public in 2000.[2] Adjacent to the County History Hall is the Art Archive Hall which was originally built in 1952. It was later changed to its current use in 2003.
