The Village Pagoda and Thanh Khe Clan Worship House are cultural spaces closely linked to the village’s establishment, reflecting its religious, spiritual, and communal values. These sites preserve invaluable heritage materials, such as the great bronze bell from 1844 and an ancient stone stele from 1900, which testify to Thanh Khe’s traditional cultural significance.

Authorised by the Department of Culture and Sports, Mr. Phan Cong Hai, Deputy Director of the Da Nang Museum, urged local authorities and residents of Thanh Khe District, particularly Thanh Khe Dong Ward, to continue preserving and promoting the sites. He emphasised the importance of improving site management, protecting artefacts, and enhancing public awareness about the significance of these historical locations.
