In 1992, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the capture of Zhangzhou by the East Route Army of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army, a monument was built on the left front side of the red building. Marshal Nie Rongzhen, the former political commissar of the East Route Army, inscribed the monument with the title of "monument to the capture of Zhangzhou by the East Route Army of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army".
