臺中支局葉煙草再乾燥場建築群(簡稱大里菸葉廠)為全臺「葉煙草再乾燥場」中,唯一運作至民國106(2017)年底才停止生產的單位,具有歷史傳承性,別具意義。

從「葉煙草再乾燥場」之「汽罐室」(創建於1942),到戰後初期「臺中菸葉加工廠」之木造「辦公廳」(今康樂室)(創建於1952),到「臺中菸葉廠」時期木造「員工食堂」(創建於1953年,今大禮堂),及其他後期改建之鍋爐間、浴室、桶菸倉庫與複薰室等,見證日治到戰後臺中地區菸草產業之發展變遷。

電影《返校》及電視劇《茶金》曾於此取景。

The Taichung Tobacco Re-Drying Plant Complex (Dali Tobacco Factory) is the only one of the five major “leaf tobacco re-drying facilities” in Taiwan that was still in production until the end of 2017. It is particularly meaningful as a historical heritage.
From the leaf tobacco re-drying plant’s “steam tank room” (built in 1942), to the wooden “office hall” (built in 1952, present-day recreation room) of the Taichung Tobacco Processing Plant in the early postwar period, to the wooden “staff cafeteria” (built in 1953, present-day auditorium) of the Taichung Tobacco Plant, and the boiler room, bathrooms, barrel storage warehouse, and re-fumigation room that were renovated in the later period, Dali Tobacco Factory is a testimony to the development of the tobacco industry in Taichung from the Japanese colonial era to the postwar period.
Scenes from the film “Detention” and the TV series “Gold Leaf” were shot here.
