History

In the late Qing dynasty (1644–1911), the house was built by Deng Xiaoping's great-grandfather Deng Xinzao (邓心早) and grandfather Deng Keda (邓克达).

On 22 August 1904, in the thirtieth seven year of the age of the Guangxu Emperor, Deng Xiaoping was born in here. He lived here for about 15 years.[4]

In July 1997, it was listed as a National Patriotic Education Base by the Propaganda Department of the Communist Party of China.

In February 1998, the CPC Secretary General Jiang Zemin wrote "Deng Xiaoping's Former Residence" on the horizontal tablet.

On 25 June 2001, it was listed as a "Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level" by the State Council of China.

On 13 August 2004, the CPC Secretary General Hu Jintao attended the unveiling of the statue of Deng Xiaoping.[4]
