義塚大墓公外觀

Yizhong Mausoleum, originally known as the Refugee Wanshan Tomb and also referred to as Baijie Yizhong Mausoleum, commonly known as Tucheng Damu Gong or Damu Gong, is a famous burial site and a temple dedicated to the God of War in northern Taiwan. It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the indigenous people in the Tucheng and Banqiao areas would steal gold, food, and even engage in murders against the Han people. Consequently, local villagers worshiped Yizhong Mausoleum in order to receive protection and repel the indigenous populations. The land cultivators provided rental fees for farmland as offerings, leading to a flourishing of incense offerings. Today, it has become a shared belief for the administrative districts of Tucheng, Banqiao, and Zhonghe, and the temple affairs are jointly managed by the district heads of these three areas. Before the restructuring of the Five Municipalities in 2010, it was jointly managed by the mayors of the three county-administered cities.
