Catholic Church of Mount Lu (simplified Chinese: 庐山天主堂; traditional Chinese: 廬山天主堂; pinyin: Lúshān Tiānzhǔtáng) is a Catholic Church on Mount Lu in Jiujiang, Jiangxi, China.
The Catholic Church of Mount Lu was originally built in 1908, three years before the fall of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911). It is said that the church was designed and built by French missionary Louis-Elisée Fatiguet (樊体爱).[1]
It was inscribed as a municipal-level protection unit by the Jiujiang Municipal Government in 1986.[citation needed]
