Sha Tau Kok Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall

沙頭角抗戰紀念館

Opened in September 2022, this is the first comprehensive museum about the Second World War in Hong Kong. The museum is at the former home of the Luo Family, which was the first base of operations for Communist-led guerrilla fighters from the Mainland who came across the border to help resist the Japanese. At the present time, the museum is only accepting group visits and bookings are essential. As the museum is outside the Frontier Closed Area, visitors do not need a permit to visit the museum.
