Outside the citadel, there is a wide moat system surrounding it. The four corners of the citadel are four high fortresses jutting out. The citadel has 4 gates: Front, Back, Left, Right. Built with a rolling arch, 3.4m wide, above is a gazebo, curved roof, tiled, all 4 gates are located in the middle of the 4 sides of the Citadel. During the period of French colonial domination, Quang Tri Citadel served as the nerve center of the local and provincial governance apparatus. Quang Tri Ancient Citadel was chosen by the French army as one of the important bases of the military station system. France built an additional prison system, expanded and solidified the prison to serve as a place to detain patriots and revolutionary soldiers in the province and region. Quang Tri Prison at one time became the center of leadership of the revolutionary movement because this was the place where the core core of youth, the first communist soldiers of Quang Tri and many leaders of the Communist Party of Vietnam were detained. The Provincial Party Committee and the Regional Party Committee belonged to the pre-uprising period. Coming to the American - puppet period. After the Geneva Agreement was signed on July 20, 1954, according to the agreement, the 17th parallel was used as the temporary dividing line. A part of Quang Tri from Ben Hai River outward was liberated, the districts from Gio Linh back to Hai Lang became a new type of colony of the American empire. Quang Tri Town, including Quang Tri Ancient Citadel, became the political, military, economic and social center. The US - puppet transformed the Citadel into a military zone, used it as a military warehouse and command center for the entire province, and opened more prisons to suppress the revolutionary movement. The 1972 strategic offensive across the South began. On April 28, we captured Dong Ha and approached Quang Tri town. On May 2, Quang Tri Town was liberated. The victory of the Quang Tri campaign in 1972 fundamentally changed the battlefield situation, pushing the US strategy of "Vietnamization of the war" to the brink of bankruptcy, creating momentum and room for the complete liberation of the South. . Having lost Quang Tri, the US-puppet crazily launched a counterattack to recapture Quang Tri with the code name "Lam Son 72". The number 1 goal is to capture Quang Tri Ancient Citadel. Quang Tri town during the 81 days and nights from June 28 to September 16 was likened to a bag of bombs. On average, every day the enemy mobilized jet planes 150-170 times and B52s 70-90 times to bomb and destroy the town and Quang Tri Ancient Citadel. With an area of less than 3 kilometers, in 81 days and nights, the town and Quang Tri Ancient Citadel had to bear 328,000 tons of bombs and bullets, on average each of our soldiers had to bear 100 tons of bombs and 200 artillery shells. We were determined to keep the city, while the enemy tried to capture the city at all costs. Thousands of soldiers sacrificed their lives here, but their remains have not yet been retrieved because there was too much smoke, fire, and bombs. Their blood and bones have mixed into the rubble and rubble. That's why today at the center of the monument, people built a memorial to form a common grave for thousands of soldiers who fell during these fierce days and nights. This mass grave was designed according to the concept of yin and yang philosophy, which has a profound meaning to escape the souls of the deceased. There are 81 stairs going up, symbolizing 81 days and nights of fighting in Quang Tri ancient citadel. Source: Quang Tri Provincial Museum and Monument Management Center
