尼山孔廟的建筑
欞星門
尼山孔廟的(de)第(di)一(yi)道大門(men)為欞星(xing)門(men)(意(yi)與(yu)闕里廟之門(men)相同)。清道光(guang)二(er)十七年(公(gong)元1847年)修廟時添建,三間四(si)柱(zhu),為八(ba)角柱(zhu),前后有石(shi)(shi)鼓夾抱,柱(zhu)上(shang)出(chu)云朵,首(shou)飾(shi)蓮花(hua)座。中二(er)柱(zhu)頂刻圓(yuan)雕石(shi)(shi)獅(shi),傍二(er)柱(zhu)頂刻花(hua)瓶。明間陰刻“欞星(xing)門(men)”三字(zi),上(shang)刻火焰(yan)寶珠。坊兩側建有八(ba)字(zi)墻。欞星(xing)門(men)下西側有石(shi)(shi)碑并(bing)亭(ting)一(yi)座,采用現代水(shui)泥(ni)結構(gou),石(shi)(shi)碑記敘(xu)了郭禎祥捐款(kuan)修廟的(de)經過。
觀川亭
觀川亭位于大成門前(qian)的(de)第一進(jin)院落,在此院落的(de)東(dong)南(nan)角。亭始建(jian)于金明昌五年(公(gong)元1194年),今存清代建(jian)筑。觀川亭東(dong)臨(lin)沂水,下臨(lin)懸崖,相傳(chuan)為(wei)孔子(zi)觀川、感(gan)嘆(tan)時光奔馳不(bu)返的(de)地方。取《論語(yu)·子(zi)罕》載“子(zi)在川上曰:‘逝者如(ru)斯(si)夫,不(bu)舍晝(zhou)夜’”語(yu)命名為(wei)觀川亭,毛澤(ze)東(dong)主席曾引用此句。今亭為(wei)方形(xing),木架無斗(dou)拱,單檐灰歇山頂。
大成門
此(ci)門為(wei)三間(jian)三門,單檐黃瓦(wa)硬山頂,無斗拱。始(shi)建(jian)于(yu)宋(song)代(dai),歷經(jing)金(jin)、元、明(ming)、清數代(dai)修復,現存(cun)為(wei)清被建(jian)筑。
大成殿
此(ci)殿(dian)為(wei)尼山孔廟(miao)的主體建筑(zhu),是祭祀孔子(zi)(zi)的主要場所。殿(dian)始建于宋慶(qing)歷(li)三年(nian)(公元1403年(nian)),金(jin)、元、明、清多次重(zhong)修,現存(cun)為(wei)清道光年(nian)間重(zhong)修。殿(dian)五間,單檐(yan)(yan)黃瓦歇山頂(ding),檐(yan)(yan)下有(you)斗拱,前檐(yan)(yan)柱為(wei)石質,八角形,每面(mian)均(jun)為(wei)淺刻小幅云龍。殿(dian)內供奉孔子(zi)(zi)及四配(pei),神龕及塑像為(wei)1989年(nian)復制,原像等在“文革”初(chu)期被(bei)毀。殿(dian)前有(you)元代石幢,記(ji)載了當時的修廟(miao)、祀廟(miao)的歷(li)史情況。
兩廡
東西兩廡各五間,前(qian)為廊,無斗拱,單(dan)檐灰瓦懸山頂。原(yuan)為金代建筑(zhu),1978年(nian)維(wei)修時重建東廡,大修西廡,為供奉(feng)孔子七十(shi)二賢弟子的地方,原(yuan)神(shen)龕及(ji)木主牌(pai)位(wei)在“文革(ge)”初期被(bei)毀(hui),1989年(nian)重新復制。

東西廂房
寢殿(dian)前東西(xi)各有三(san)間廂(xiang)房(fang),前出廊(lang),無斗拱,單(dan)檐灰瓦懸山頂。兩廂(xiang)房(fang)是祭祀孔(kong)子之子孔(kong)鯉、之孫孔(kong)伋的(de)場所。因孔(kong)鯉、孔(kong)伋在宋崇寧元(yuan)年(公(gong)元(yuan)1102年)被追封為“泗水侯(hou)”及(ji)“沂水侯(hou)”,所以(yi)東為泗水侯(hou)殿(dian),西(xi)為沂水侯(hou)殿(dian)。

土地祠
講(jiang)堂后為土地祠(ci),一(yi)間(jian),灰瓦(wa)懸山(shan)(shan)頂,前有照壁,是(shi)用(yong)來祭(ji)祀(si)尼山(shan)(shan)土地神的地方(因孔子(zi)生(sheng)于尼山(shan)(shan),得到(dao)土地神的保護,使之成為圣人)。祠(ci)為清道(dao)光年間(jian)重修(xiu)廟時(shi)添建。

啟圣王殿
啟圣王(wang)是奉祀孔子之(zhi)父叔(shu)梁紇的場所,因叔(shu)梁紇于元至順元年(nian)(公元1330年(nian))被加贈為(wei)“啟圣王(wang)”而得(de)名。此殿始于唐(原年(nian)代不祥),原為(wei)叔(shu)梁紇廟,也叫尼丘山祠,五代擴(kuo)建(jian)時改為(wei)專(zhuan)祀叔(shu)梁紇。后經歷代重修,現存為(wei)清初建(jian)筑(zhu),殿五間,前出廊(lang),無斗拱,單檐(yan)綠瓦歇山頂。殿前面有三(san)門,名為(wei)啟圣門。

尼山書院
尼(ni)山孔廟(miao)(miao)之(zhi)后(hou)便是(shi)(shi)書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)。書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)是(shi)(shi)儒(ru)家學(xue)者(zhe)主講的(de)地(di)方(fang),書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)之(zhi)名始于(yu)唐代,書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)制度形成于(yu)宋代。書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)主持(chi)人稱為洞主、山長(chang)、堂長(chang)、院(yuan)長(chang)、教(jiao)授等職(zhi)名,各(ge)個朝代不同(tong)。尼(ni)山書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)設學(xue)長(chang)管理,為正(zheng)八品,書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)以《四書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)》、《五經》為基本(ben)教(jiao)材,為一地(di)方(fang)的(de)教(jiao)育中(zhong)心,為著名學(xue)者(zhe)研討學(xue)問的(de)勝地(di)。在尼(ni)山孔廟(miao)(miao)后(hou)設書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan),因孔子(zi)是(shi)(shi)歷代尊崇的(de)文化圣人,以示在此設書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)最有(you)意義。尼(ni)山書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)正(zheng)房(fang)三間(jian),前出廊,無斗拱,灰瓦(wa)懸(xuan)山頂;東(dong)西各(ge)有(you)廂房(fang)三間(jian),東(dong)廂之(zhi)南有(you)茶(cha)房(fang)兩間(jian),均(jun)為灰瓦(wa)硬山頂;大門一間(jian),灰瓦(wa)歇山頂。門前東(dong)側有(you)元(yuan)代刻(ke)制的(de)尼(ni)山書(shu)(shu)(shu)(shu)院(yuan)石碑。
尼山書院始建于宋慶歷三年(nian)(nian)(公(gong)元1043年(nian)(nian)),原址在廟(miao)的西側。金明(ming)昌五年(nian)(nian)(公(gong)元1194年(nian)(nian))移(yi)于今處,后經多次重修,今存為明(ming)代建筑。明(ming)朝孔(kong)子(zi)六十孫孔(kong)承慶(早卒,明(ming)景泰六年(nian)(nian),公(gong)元1455年(nian)(nian)追贈衍圣(sheng)公(gong))曾有詩曰:“盤石(shi)垂蘿(luo)何處家,山深茅屋隔煙(yan)霞。幽(you)人讀罷無(wu)余事,紗(sha)帽籠頭自煮(zhu)茶”。似此(ci)幽(you)雅(ya)清靜的仙境,真是讀書講學難得的好(hao)地方。
夫子(zi)洞(坤靈洞)
夫子(zi)(zi)洞(dong)(dong)相傳為(wei)孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)出生(sheng)處,位于(yu)觀川亭的山(shan)崖下。孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)父親叔梁(liang)紇為(wei)魯國陬邑大(da)(da)夫,娶顏征在為(wei)妻,征在母家(jia)在尼(ni)山(shan)東南的顏母莊。至于(yu)孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)為(wei)什么能在洞(dong)(dong)中呢?有兩種說(shuo)法;一(yi)說(shuo)顏征在祈禱尼(ni)山(shan)神后,回家(jia)時便臨產,將孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)產于(yu)洞(dong)(dong)中;一(yi)說(shuo)孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)生(sheng)來丑陋,其(qi)母將其(qi)遺棄,天氣炎熱,雕用其(qi)翅膀扇涼。坤靈(ling)洞(dong)(dong)始見(jian)于(yu)金正大(da)(da)四年(公(gong)元1227年)成書(shu)的孔(kong)元措《孔(kong)氏祖庭廣記》圖中,刻(ke)有洞(dong)(dong)名,為(wei)金代(dai)的進士劉曄所刻(ke)。元至元三十一(yi)年(公(gong)元1294年),司居敬刻(ke)孔(kong)子(zi)(zi)像,置于(yu)洞(dong)(dong)中,后為(wei)戰(zhan)亂所毀(hui),洞(dong)(dong)因被水淤塞已滿,1978年清(qing)理重修,1983年由(you)山(shan)東省省長(chang)李予昂題刻(ke)“夫子(zi)(zi)洞(dong)(dong)”石(shi)碑,2009年新建圍墻(qiang)護之。
尼山孔廟的文物價值
尼(ni)(ni)山(shan)(shan)是(shi)孔子的(de)出生(sheng)地(di),在儒家學(xue)派(pai)和封(feng)建士大夫心目中是(shi)中國傳統文(wen)(wen)化學(xue)術(shu)的(de)泰山(shan)(shan)北斗,深(shen)(shen)受景仰(yang)。由(you)漢至(zhi)清受到歷(li)代(dai)(dai)封(feng)建王朝的(de)重視。因(yin)其鐘靈毓(yu)圣之功,宋代(dai)(dai)封(feng)尼(ni)(ni)山(shan)(shan)為(wei)毓(yu)圣侯(hou),并建祠奉祀,規格等(deng)同四瀆。尼(ni)(ni)山(shan)(shan)孔廟是(shi)封(feng)建社會尊孔讀經、崇(chong)德報功的(de)產物,也(ye)是(shi)我國古(gu)代(dai)(dai)教(jiao)育體(ti)制中廟學(xue)合一(yi)的(de)典型建筑。尼(ni)(ni)山(shan)(shan)建筑群雖經歷(li)代(dai)(dai)興衰(shuai),依然保持了頑強的(de)生(sheng)命力,這和歷(li)代(dai)(dai)統治者(zhe)尊孔崇(chong)儒的(de)指導思(si)想是(shi)密不可(ke)分的(de)。尼(ni)(ni)山(shan)(shan)孔廟是(shi)華(hua)夏民族(zu)一(yi)個漫長的(de)歷(li)史時(shi)期(qi)思(si)想文(wen)(wen)化的(de)遺跡(ji)和文(wen)(wen)化淵源的(de)載體(ti),有著較高的(de)歷(li)史和藝術(shu)價值,更有著深(shen)(shen)刻(ke)的(de)文(wen)(wen)化內涵。
