A small school at the mountain's foot.
Tieshan Elementary is a small school of roughly six classes and about 60 students, sitting at the southern foot of Tieqiao Mountain along Changsheng Road. Its exact founding year is not confirmed in available records, but its location ties it to the mountain's well-known “Sword Well” legend, a story locally associated with the Ming loyalist general Koxinga.
鐵山國小是一所規模不大的學校，約有六個班級、六十名學生，座落於長生路旁的鐵砧山南麓。學校確切創校年份目前資料未明，但其所在位置與鐵砧山著名的「劍井」傳說有關——當地相傳此傳說與明朝遺臣鄭成功有關。

Near the legend of the Sword Well.
Tieshan Elementary's location at the base of Tieqiao Mountain ties it to the mountain's well-known "Sword Well" (劍井) legend — a piece of local folklore associated with the Ming loyalist general Koxinga, passed down rather than documented as verified history.
