The predecessor of Prince Gong's Mansion was the mansion of Heshen, a powerful minister of the Qianlong Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty, and the mansion of Yonglin, the younger brother of Emperor Jiaqing. In 1851, Prince Kung Yixin became the owner of the house, hence the name of Prince Kung’s Mansion.
