Former Tangrong Brick Kiln

Phone:886-7-2225138 Address:800 Beside the Chungtu Bridge on the north end of the Love River, Sanmin District
The Former Tangrong Brick Kiln is located beside the Love River on Tongmeng Road beside the Chungtu Bridge. In 1902, the Japanese set up the suburb Sankuaicuo. This was the location of the Samejima Tile Kiln Company, which was equipped with three traditional "Eye Kilns". These were the first brick kilns in Takou. In 1913, Taiwan's economic prosperity resulted in a boom of construction. The demand for red bricks expanded, and the Japanese set up the "Taiwan Tile Kiln Company" to unify all existing kilns across Taiwan. The result of this unification was the establishment of the Taiwan Tile Kiln Company, Takou Factory. Due to increasing demand, six high capacity Hoffman Kilns were built. These supplied most of the bricks used for important buildings in southern Taiwan.After the liberation of Taiwan in 1945, the Takou factory was merged into Taiwan's "Provincial Administration of Industry and Mining Ministry" and became the Kaohsiung Brick Factory. In 1957, the owner of Tangjung Steelworks, Mr. Tang Chuan-zong, acquired the Kaohsiung Brick Factory, and in 1962 it became a state-owned enterprise. The output from the Tangjung Brick Kiln played an important role in Taiwan's economic miracle during the 60's and 70's. After transferring to Tangjung Steelworks in 1975 an inverted kiln was also built with an 80-meter long tunnel built to manufacture heat resistant bricks. With changing methods of construction, the factory was forced to close in 1985. The City Government has now listed the brick kiln as a site of historical interest, and in 2005 the site was refurbished into a leisure area for citizens. It still contains items from the past including the chimney and the Hoffman Kilns which were built in 1913.886-7-2225138#8321
