Korea Heritage Service · khs.go.krThe Altar for Prince Geumseong is a site associated with the movement to restore King Danjong to the throne. It is closely connected with the political climate of the 18th century, when the rise of tangpyeong politics, a policy of balanced appointments across factions, renewed emphasis on loyalty to the monarch, and it is valued as cultural heritage of great importance for understanding the culture of the time, since altars dedicated to a deified royal figure from that dynasty are extremely rare.
