The Lugang Folk Arts Museum was originally the ancestral home of the prominent Guh family in early Taiwan. To preserve the traditional culture of Lugang and uphold the principle of "taking from the society and giving back to the society," the Guh family donated the land, buildings, furniture, utensils, and collectibles of their ancestral home in 1973, while also establishing a foundation for long-term management. This has made it a museum with local characteristics. The museum consists of two buildings: a traditional Minnan-style building called "Gufeng Building," which is over 200 years old, and a nearly 100-year-old Baroque-style building from the late Renaissance period known as "Western-style Building." The museum houses over 6,000 items, primarily folk artifacts from the mid-Qing dynasty to the early Republic of China, showcasing cultural relics related to food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, recreation, religious customs, and festival celebrations. Gufeng Building is an 18th-century brick-and-wood traditional Minnan residence, representing the classic style of Minnan architecture. It is rich in historical charm and provides a great setting to appreciate the traditional deep courtyard style of Minnan homes.
