Daming County is a county under the jurisdiction of Handan City in far southern Hebei Province, China. It was formerly one of the capitals of the Northern Song.

History

file:China_-_Song_Dynasty-en.svg

It was formerly known as Beijing under the Northern Song dynasty, who used it as their northern capital.Theobald, Ulrich. China Knowledge. "[http://www.chinaknowledge.de/History/Song/song-map.html Chinese History - Song Dynasty 宋 (960–1279): Map and Geography]". Accessed 19 Oct 2012. The city served as an important centre for learning during Imperial China. It was renamed to Daming Fu during the Ming Dynasty and stayed unchanged until the Republican era. French Jesuits settled in the city in 1897 and founded a French College (Fawen 法文). A large Gothic church was erected inside the city walls from 1918 to 1921; it became a cathedral in 1935 and is listed as key cultural relic of the People's Republic of China since 2013.Coomans Thomas 高曼士, and Xu Yitao 徐怡涛.
