The Tay Tien Regiment 52 was set up on February 27, 1947. During the French resistance war (1945-1954), Moc Chau was the gathering place of the regiment, from where the soldiers spread out to fight across the northwest and upper Lao fronts, contributing to the victory over the French.
The Tay Tien historical site was inaugurated on August 20, 2016, becoming a centre for historical education and a typical cultural historical work in a master plan for Moc Chau tourism development.
