Head of the Department of Culture, Science and Information of Dong Ha City, Tran Thanh Tien, said: “Many items of the Dong Ha Station - Bunker relic have now degraded, affecting the value of the relic.

Therefore, the investment in upgrading this relic, which was implemented in early May 2025, will not only preserve and promote the historical value of the site and important artifacts, create more meaningful tourist destinations for visitors from near and far, and educate the young generation about the heroic revolutionary tradition of the homeland, but also create more architectural and aesthetic highlights for the central area of ​​Dong Ha City.

Dong Ha Station - Bunker Relic is an important historical site located at the intersection of Hung Vuong - Tran Hung Dao - Le Quy Don streets, Dong Ha City. This place is a train station built in 1927 and operated throughout the French colonial period. There is also a bunker built in the style of a watchtower to serve as a guard, protect the station and block National Highway 9.

This was once the place where the people of Dong Ha and Cam Lo gathered their uprising forces to seize power during the August Revolution; where many struggles of the people against the Saigon puppet regime took place as well as fierce battles between the liberation army and the US - Republic of Vietnam army in the years 1967 - 1972. In particular, in 1972, the liberation army organized an attack to liberate Dong Ha, paving the way for the campaign to liberate Quang Tri province.
