Hung Nghia Nam Dinh parish, located in Hai Hung commune (Hai Hau district, Nam Dinh province) about 30km from the center of Nam Dinh city, was constructed in 1927 as the Gothic architecture of France, Spain. Over the years, however, the church has been deteriorated by the effects of inclement weather. Until 2000, Hung Nghia parish was renovated, repaired and until 2007, it was completely completed from inside and outside.
