Description

  • "Erected in 1929 with a generous donation from Mr Tang Chi-ngong (father of Sir Shiu-kin Tang), after whom it was named, the building was designed to house the university’s School of Chinese. It was officially opened by Sir William Peel, the then Governor of Hong Kong, on 28 September 1931. Chinese studies and other arts subjects were taught in the building until the early 1950s. It was used as the Centre of Asian Studies from 1982 to 2012 and now houses the Jao Tsung-I Petite Ecole.

    鄧志昂樓由鄧肇堅爵士父親鄧志昂先生於一九二九年捐助興建，作為大學的中文學院之用，大樓因此以鄧志昂先生的名字命名。大樓於一九三一年九月二十八日由當時之總督貝璐爵士揭幕。大樓用作中文及其他文科課程的主要授課地點至一九五〇年代初。一九八二至二〇一二年期間，大樓由亞洲研究中心使用，現在用作饒宗頤學術館。" -- The Antiquities and Monuments Office website
