Former Residence of Lu Xun in Shanghai
The Former Residence of Lu Xun is located at No. 9, Dalu New Village, Shanyin Road. It is a three-story building with brick and wood structure, red bricks, and red tiles. During this period, Lu Xun wrote many combative essays, edited the magazine 'Translations', and translated works such as 'Dead Souls'. He advocated woodcut prints, edited and organized Qu Qiubai's posthumous works 'Sea Forest'. In 1935, he sent a telegram to congratulate the Red Army on their victory in reaching northern Shaanxi. In early 1936, he actively participated in the anti-Japanese national united front work in the literary and cultural circles. The name of the museum was inscribed by the late Premier Zhou Enlai. The building's exterior has the traditional style of folk residences in Lu Xun's hometown, Shaoxing. The museum houses more than 17,000 exhibits, which comprehensively introduce Lu Xun's ideological development and fighting journey, focusing on his social and cultural activities during his 10 years in Shanghai.
