The Ta Vu House

This is the fourth project under the German international support program for preserving Hue monuments of the ancient capital. The other projects focus on preserving the Khai Tuong Lau – An Dinh Palace, King Tu Duc’s Tomb and Toi Linh Tu in the Hue royal place.

The Ta Vu project will be carried by the German Conservation Restoration and Education Project (GCREP) and Society for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage (GEKE).

After completion, Ta Vu, built in the early 19 th century and upgraded in 1899, will be a place to showcase parts of the Nguyen Dynasty’s history and an attractive destination for visitors.
