Tuy Loan Communal House (also known as Thuy Loan) was discovered during the reign of King Le Thanh Ton, Hong Duc era (1470 - 1497). Tuy Loan communal house was first built around 1470 in another place. In 1787, the communal house was restored for the first time. In 1888, the communal house unfortunately burned down and was rebuilt on the land next to Tuy Loan river.
After many changes in location and style, the current Tuy Loan communal house was built under the reign of King Thanh Thai in the year Canh Ty (1900) on the basis of simulating the scale and style of the old communal house, built during the Dong Khanh period and destroyed by storms. Since then, Tuy Loan communal house has been regularly renovated, but its original architectural value has not changed.
