Tam Toa bell tower Tháp chuông nhà thờ Tam Tòa
Ruined bell tower in the park
Look at the ruined bell tower of Tam Toa in the central park. The ward page says the church was built in 1886 and reduced, in the American war years it dates 1964–1972, to the tower. It is a park stop, not a service and not a museum. No street number was printed. The fee and the hours are check on arrival.

The ruined Tam Toa bell tower, dome and shaft, in the park

The ward page puts the tower in the central park and calls the park quiet. It says the church was built in 1886 and, in the American war years it dates 1964–1972, reduced to the tower. See it in daylight so the broken masonry reads. The frame needs the dome and the shaft together.

The heritage list of 12 Sep 2024 ranks the bell tower, together with a water tower and the banyan at Chùa Ông, as a provincial war-crimes relic, in the old wards Hải Đình and Đồng Mỹ. No street number is on either page. The address is check on arrival.
The same ward page says some documents put a baptism of the poet Hàn Mặc Tử here around 1912. That is the page’s hedge, not a second source. Do not treat the baptism as settled. No ticket page was opened. The fee and the hours are check on arrival. The tour-card free label used on other city stops is not a Tam Toa tariff.
