The '''Lukang Kinmen Hall''' ({{zh|t=鹿港金門館|s=鹿港金门馆|first=t|p=Lùgǎng Jīnmén Guǎn}}) is a historical hall located in [[Lukang, Changhua|Lukang Township]], [[Changhua County]], [[Taiwan]].

==History== The hall was originally constructed in 1805 as a temple to enshrine Sufu Wangye by the son of Xu Le-shan. It was initially called the '''Wu Jiang Guan'''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.medicaltravel.org.tw/Scenery-Content.aspx?idstr=E1_376470000A_000066&lang=2|title=Lukang Kinman Hall|work=Taiwan Medical Travel|access-date=31 January 2021}}</ref> Xu also donated the tablet ''Wu Jiang Guan'' which hangs in the main hall. The hall also served as a gathering place for people and the navy. In 1848, an earthquake in Changhua damaged the building, which was subsequently restored in 1855 with funds and labor from the navy. Upon completion, an engraved stone tablet was placed on the wall of the sacrificial hall.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://tourism.chcg.gov.tw/EN/hopSpotInfo.aspx?id=290&chk=d46bec31-bf2b-4367-85b2-1b5da19ece10&param=pn%3d3%26dpClass%3d2|title=Lukang Kinman Hall|work=Travel in Changhua County|publisher=Changhua County Government|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304025637/http://tourism.chcg.gov.tw/EN/hopSpotInfo.aspx?id=290&chk=d46bec31-bf2b-4367-85b2-1b5da19ece10&param=pn%3d3%26dpClass%3d2|archive-date=4 March 2016}}</ref>

During the [[Taiwan under Japanese rule|Japanese rule of Taiwan]], the hall was partially renovated in 1908. After this, repair work was done to the main hall and Sanchuan hall in 1975. In June 1994, the [[Changhua County Government]] undertook historic site restoration work. On 25 October 2000, the Kinmen Hall was designated a county-level historic site.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rtaiwanr.com/lukang/lukang-kinmen-temple|title=Lukang Kinmen Temple|work=roundTAIWANround|access-date=31 January 2021}}</ref>
