Dinglinzaibian Police Station

Established in February 1898 on what is now Fuxing Street as one of the earliest Japanese police outposts in southern Kaohsiung. This substation anchored the administrative core of Linyuan for most of the colonial era, with a public school, traditional market, and township office in its immediate vicinity. Rebuilt in 1909 and renamed several times across successive regime changes, the brick-and-timber single-storey complex still features a Japanese-style dormitory, a walled garden, an old well, a water tower, and an air raid shelter. Police operations relocated to a new building on Linyuan North Road in 1989 because of cramped street access and the complex was registered as a historic building in 2007. Restoration was completed two years later in 2009 and the site is open to the public.
