Provincial Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit

Guanghan Confucian Temple was first built during the Jiayou period of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was later damaged by fire and gradually fell into disrepair and abandonment over time. It was rebuilt during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, expanded during the Xuande and Tianshun periods, and underwent successive renovations during the Chenghua, Jiajing, Tianqi, Chongzhen, and other periods. It was rebuilt in the first year of the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, renovated in the eleventh year of the Qianlong period (1746), repaired in the third year of the Jiaqing period (1798), and rebuilt again in the seventeenth year of the Jiaqing period (1812), resulting in a more grand and spacious structure. The entire architectural complex is well-organized, structurally rigorous, majestic, and exquisitely crafted, possessing high historical and technical value. In April 1991, it was announced as a provincial cultural relics protection unit by the Sichuan Provincial People's Government.
