The communal house is ranked as a national architectural and artistic relic according to Decision No. 138/QD dated January 31, 1992 of the Minister of Culture, Information and Sports (now the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Sports). Tourism). In terms of architectural and artistic value, Huong Cau communal house is probably second only to Lo Hanh communal house, "the first in Kinh Bac", Dong Lo commune of the same district. The communal house is located in the center of the village looking west, in front there is a communal lake, and further away is the Cau River surrounding. The communal lake is not only a place where water gathers, providing an ecological landscape, but also a place where many folk games take place during the communal house festival, wrestling, going for prayers, singing quan ho on boats...all taking place on the lake. communal house lake. On the left in front of the communal house gate, a village well still reflects water next to a corner of the rural market. No one knows how long the village well has existed, but many generations of people here have been very attached to their childhood memories next to the village well. A corner of the rural market also displays, sells and buys all kinds of village products. Like many other communal houses, the gate of Huong Cau communal house is built in the ritual style, including a main gate built with a pillar with square edges, the body of the pillar is covered with parallel sentences in Chinese characters praising the scene of the communal house and the people worshiped in the communal house. The top of the pillar is stylized in the shape of a garden fruit. Many visual elements, along with folk culture, are displayed here. The lower part of the pier's ear is made up of seams, the four sides are covered with four sacred animals: Dragon, lyre, tortoise, phoenix, four sacred animals with many meanings in Vietnamese religious culture. Huong Cau Communal House has a total area of 8,971 m2, the inner communal house area is 291.60 m2. The garden is large and green with shady trees. From a distance, the wide, low roof of Huong Cau communal house with curved blades hidden in the verdant canopy of the village's trees makes it easy to recognize that it is an ancient communal house. The communal house has a very unique architecture, the grand communal house looks like a dragon communal house, surrounded by a very airy wooden railing system, and a roof system with four curved blades. The two main roof sides and the two side roof sides are covered with funny-nosed tiles. The roof edge is built to create a straight strip of lemon flowers connecting the two ends of the roof pliers. The tip of the roof pliers is stylized in the shape of a dragon's head opening its mouth to grasp the edge of the roof. The dragon's tail is a thin strip that curves like a crescent moon. In addition to the aesthetic element, it also has the element of yin and yang. His father put into it valuable folk experiences. The dragon is a symbol of kingship and a symbol of rain clouds. The crescent moon is also a symbol of rain. The dragon's head grasps the edge of the roof, making it easy to imagine the image of a dragon whirring and spraying water. And that will prevent a fire from happening. From a scientific perspective, it is also very reasonable, and folk experience will make people always aware of water and fire in life. The bank is also built to create a strip of lemon flowers reaching the bend to connect with the bank. The edge of the goat is built to create a strip of lemon flowers running straight to connect with the four curved blades. The corners of the knife's head are decorated with a stylized dragon and phoenix shape with a curved shape. At the four corners of the knife's head, there are dragon heads making water as if spraying water on the edge of the river. The four curved corners of the knife's head not only bring the element of yin and yang but also make the house more elegant and soft. The ingenuity of the masons who built Huong Cau communal house, they built tough, strong but very elegant lemon flower strip edges and at the same time created four corners of curved knife heads to cover the edges of the strip, creating a soft floating roof. commercial. The great communal house has 3 rooms and 2 wings built on high ground. From a distance, you can see the roofs forming like a large boat facing down on the wooden frame for the roof. The flat, wide roof system and low structure create a large slope for the communal house roof. On the outside, it is easy to see the porch stripes running around the four communal roofs with 24 stripes. The front eaves are carved the most. The two ends of the middle stripe touch both sides. The main theme is the image of a nest dragon, a mother dragon, and a baby dragon, with details of a 4-clawed dragon and a round, fat body. In addition to dragon images, there are also human and beast images. The top of the porch on the left side has a dragon image on the inside, and there is an image of a fairy's hand with long slender fingers, long nails, holding a dragon sword. Near the dragon's tail, there is a human figure, naked body, belted around the waist, wearing a loincloth, lying on a wooden shelf, one hand resting on his head, the other hand resting on his knee, legs crossed in a five letter, looking very comfortable. Thoughts and faces are described in detail and exude a very cheerful and close feeling. The right side of the porch stripe is also covered with the main theme being a dragon with four clawed dragon details, part of the corner of the stripe has a very funny spirit animal image. The next two lines are also thickly carved with themes of dragons, swords and clouds. The remaining lines running around the four roofs are carved lighter and more sparse than the previous lines. The main carving themes are images of mother dragons, baby dragons, swords, clouds, and mother dragons always opening their mouths to grasp the roof of the ship. If in some other communal houses in the Northern countryside, at the beginning of the 18th century, the engravings of human images were absent, the folk features remained only in the animals close to the workers, then Huong Cau communal house still fully retains the close image of people and animals, retaining the aesthetics, preferences and emotions of the workers. Scenes of love between boys and girls next to the scene of "four sacred animals and four nobles". The royal art here is very strange and rough. We rarely see images of ferocious tigers, or stereotypical images of the four sacred animals and four precious animals, but instead there are images that are very everyday, close and full of folk vitality.

The Tran family's mausoleum was built during the Le Dynasty (more than 200 years ago), and is a carved architectural work of unique value. The main value of this mausoleum is the art of stone carving, because all works in the mausoleum are built with laterite and green stone. From mausoleums, small huts covering altars and statues of individual dancers, the artifacts here are very diverse and contain very profound artistic content. It is a system of artifacts made of stone such as stele, parallel sentences, statues of dancers, and symbolic animals also made of stone. All of this has given the mausoleum great artistic value even though it has gone through many changes of time and many ups and downs of history. This is a place to worship typical famous people of the Tran family: The couple of Duke Tran Dinh Ngoc and Duke Tran Dinh Mien, so this mausoleum is not simply a place to commemorate famous people of one family but also a A place to witness important local events: Ceremonies, rituals, and ceremonies not only take place in the common communal house but also take place within the Tran family, deeply expressing the sentiment of "drinking". "When you eat fruit, remember the person who planted the tree" of the people. Although many documents about famous people of the Tran family have been lost, they are recorded quite clearly in the national history in the book "Dai Viet Su Ky Toan Thu" (volume I, Record of 1686). -1740) of the Social and Science Publishing House, Hanoi, 1982. The interior part of the Tran family mausoleum is currently divided into two main parts: The first part is the mausoleum (grave) including 3 small huts facing the mausoleum facing the South, the other three sides are residential areas. In front of the mausoleum area, there is a mausoleum pond, a river trough and road 19. Around the mausoleum area there are a number of compound graves (Le Dynasty). Among these tombs, it is worth noting that there are tombs of family members and villagers who have long called them "grandfather's mausoleum" and "lady's mausoleum". Most of the above graves are sunken and flat below the ground (no earthen mounds or construction above). Some houses have been dug up and are no longer intact. The second part of the mausoleum's inner temple area is considered the exterior display part of a museum. Here, there are mainly stone steles, statues of boxers and symbolic animals such as stone crocodiles and stone horses. These artifacts are built in two long rows running along the mausoleum, at the outermost are two horses kicking each other. Previously, statues of boxers had roofs like small huts. Currently, those huts are all gone and some of the stone steles here are also scattered, only to be collected later and brought back as before. All stone statues in the Tran family mausoleum are carved very elaborately and artistically, in a very vivid, clear and unique Le Dynasty style. Each martial artist has his own personality and expresses his inner feelings differently, but they all exude the majesty of soldiers standing guard over the mansion (grave) of their master. The Tran family's mausoleum is an outdoor relic, without buildings like cultural buildings such as temples, communal houses or pagodas. Therefore, artifacts related to the mausoleum, in addition to those in its area, must also include artifacts kept in the family and village here. The parallel stone steles here are extremely valuable documents and artifacts, playing an important role in research on family history, famous Tran family members and the construction and renovation process of the Tran family. this mausoleum. Statues of people and animals in Tran family mausoleums tend to be depicted close to reality (the size is the same as real people and horses). Currently, 4 statues of dancers have been brought to Bac Giang Museum to be displayed and introduced to visitors inside and outside the province to visit and study. The artifacts that originally belonged to Cau communal house are now preserved in Giua village, also in Luong Phong commune. These are ordinations, orations, and reliable evidence of the great and profound influence of famous people from the Tran family on Luong Phong village and commune. There are currently 18 ordinations, most of which belong to the Nguyen dynasty. Thanks to these ordinations, we can now know fully and accurately. Specifically, the following 5 people are - King Cao Son King Linh Linh - King Quy Minh King - Princess Dien Binh King. - Your Majesty assists the Great King of Linh Quoc. In short, the Tran family mausoleum is an extremely valuable cultural work. It includes basic values that are similar to the cultural value and the architectural value of artistic carving (stone carving). This is a mausoleum built during the Le Dynasty. The art of carving reached a high level. The artifacts and stone sculptures here are very rich and diverse, deeply expressing the soul and talent of our ancestors from ancient times. With precious historical values as well as unique stone sculpture architecture of the Tran family mausoleum, in 1990 the Ministry of Culture recognized this mausoleum as a national historical site.
