History Its name phường Văn Miếu – Quốc Tử Giám stems from two famous historical and cultural relics, lied in the center of the ward and even occupied the largest areas: Văn Miếu (Temple of Literature) and Quốc Tử Giám (National Academy).Sacred Van Mieu Quoc Tu Giam Meanwhile, the English documents made by the Government of Vietnam and press have all accepted a very popular way of writing as Van Mieu – Quoc Tu Giam ward, or simply VMQTG Ward.

Before the Government of French Indochina undertook a comprehensive redevelopment of the entire area of Hanoi City around 1902, most of the area of modern Văn Miếu – Quốc Tử Giám Ward was within the premises of the Temple of Literature. Some locations have always had guards to preserve the sanctity of the educational environment.

During the first half of the 20th century, it became the southern part of District 1, where a small thermal power plant was built by the French engineers to ensure adequate energy for the middle class.

On December 21, 1974, the Hanoi City People's Committee issued a law on re-dividing its area into little zones (like wards) and quarters (like urban district). Accordingly, the entire area of the Temple of Literature and the residential areas surrounding it have been planned as Văn Miếu and Quốc Tử Giám areas of Đống Đa quarter.

In December 1978, a Decision on the re-organization of these two areas was further issued.

According to Resolution 1656/NQ-UBTVQH15 of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly of Vietnam on June 16, 2025,Nghị quyết số 1656/NQ-UBTVQH15 sắp xếp các ĐVHC cấp xã của thành phố Hà Nội năm 2025 after the dissolution of Đống Đa district, the new Văn Miếu – Quốc Tử Giám Ward was established based on the area of some old localities as follows: Total area and population of former wards : Khâm Thiên, Thổ Quan, Văn Chương.
