The Square was first built in 1913, it was called as Central Square at that time. In 1919, its name had been changed into Langsu Square. During the ruling period of Kuomintang, the name of the square had been changed into Zhongshan Square, which was still used after the liberation of Shenyang. In Cultural Revolution period, it was called Hongqi Square. Since 1981 the name Zhongshan Square has been reused.

In 1956, Zhongshan Square was reconstructed. In the center of the square a fountain was built to add magnificence to it. The present majestic landscape of the square was established in the large-scale reconstruction in 1969.
