The former Guangzhouwan French commissioner’s office is in Zhanjiang’s Xiashan District.

Documented place and context#

Guangdong’s cultural heritage reference locates this building at 3 Haibin First Road and dates it to 1903. It records later repairs and different administrative uses. Guangzhouwan in the building’s name concerns this historical setting in Zhanjiang; it should not be used as an address in modern Guangzhou.

Planning your visit#

Keep 广州湾法国公使署旧址 and 湛江霞山 together in the saved destination. Distinguish the former commissioner’s office from the separately named former military headquarters. Check which spaces are open for visits. A protected-building description is not evidence of a current exhibition or guided-tour schedule.
