The Nanjing Union Theological Seminary (simplified Chinese: 金陵协和神学院; traditional Chinese: 金陵協和神學院; pinyin: Jīnlíng xiéhé shénxuéyuàn) is the flagship theological seminary of Protestant Christianity in China today. It is managed by the China Christian Council.
Prior to the founding of the People's Republic of China, the institution had its beginnings as Nanking Theological Seminary, established in 1911. In November 1952, ten other theological seminaries in East China would join it to form Nanjing Union Theological Seminary. In 1961, Yanjing Union Theological Seminary of Beijing would likewise join, making a total of twelve seminaries which formed the new seminary.[citation needed]
