This is the place associated with the life and heroic struggle of Commander Tran Van Thanh and the Gia Nghi insurgents in the Lang Linh - Bay Tho uprising against the French colonialists. Manager Tran Van Thanh was born into a well-off middle-class farming family in Binh Thanh Dong commune (Phu Tan district). When he grew up, he went to study Confucianism. He studied little but knew a lot. Later, his father took him home to teach him martial arts, first to protect himself and then to help honest people. From 1840, Mr. Tran Van Thanh joined the army, and in 1845 he became Chief Manager, so he was also called Manager Thanh. In 1867, France occupied Chau Doc citadel (An Giang province). Not subduing the enemy, he pulled the militia to Bay Tha to build a base, coordinating with Nguyen Trung Truc's insurgent army to fight the French in the Long Xuyen and Rach Gia areas. After Nguyen Trung Truc was executed by the French (in 1868), Commander Tran Van Thanh gathered insurgents from all over the Western region to Lang Linh to build fortresses, forge knives and swords, and attack enemy posts... The French attacked Lang Linh - Bay Tho many times but did not achieve results. In early 1873, the French sent someone to bring a letter to bribe them, but Commander Tran Van Thanh firmly refused to submit. Unable to bribe him, the French mobilized soldiers from Long Xuyen, Can Tho, and Chau Doc to attack the Chau Phu area. From March 19 to 20, 1873, Commander Tran Van Thanh directly commanded the insurgent army to fight against the enemy and sacrificed heroically. People mourned and called him Duc Co Quan, and built a temple in Lang Linh. The temple worshiping Officer Tran Van Thanh, also known as Buu Huong Tu or Duc Co Quan's Palace, was built in 1897, as a place to commemorate Officer Tran Van Thanh and the Gia Nghi insurgents who sacrificed their lives in the Lang Linh uprising - Bay Tha (1867-1873) was also the place where people and followers of the Buu Son Ky Huong religion gathered to patriotically fight against the French colonialists. In February 1913, on the death anniversary of Officer Tran Van Thanh and Gia Nghi insurgents, Mr. Tran Van Nhu organized a large ceremony, patriotic people around the area and descendants of insurgents attended in large numbers. The French colonialists were afraid, so they came to surround and burn the temple to destroy any trace of Admin Tran Van Thanh. In 1938, Mr. Nguyen Van Tinh, a follower of Buu Son Ky Huong, rebuilt the temple at the old foundation, roofing it with tiles, building brick walls, wooden columns, and a spacious and spacious tiled floor. In 1947, revolutionary forces from the temple of Quan Co Tran Van Thanh destroyed the French colonial post in the commune. In retaliation, the French colonialists terrorized and burned the temple again, leaving only 4 pillars in the main hall. In 1952, people around the area contributed money to rebuild the temple of Quan Co Tran Van Thanh, as spacious as it is today. The temple was built in an ancient architectural style, in the shape of the letter "three" including the main hall, east corridor and west corridor, roofed with large tube tiles, on the roof there is a statue of two dragons with pearl paintings, wooden pillars, brick walls, tiled floors. encaustic tiles. From 1955-1975, the temple was the commune's revolutionary base, a place to supply, communicate and house cadres working in the locality. On December 12, 1986, the temple of Quan Co Tran Van Thanh was recognized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism as a national historical-cultural relic. Every year, on February 20, 21 and 22 (lunar calendar), local authorities and a large number of people solemnly organize death anniversary ceremonies according to traditional rituals.
