Uijeongbuji Site

The Uijeongbu was the highest administrative body of the Joseon period, responsible for commanding all officials and overseeing state affairs in general; in keeping with this standing, it was located in the first plot to the left of Gwanghwamun Gate. As the supreme organ of government of the Joseon Dynasty for five hundred years, its historical significance is very great, and academic surveys have confirmed the remains of three major Uijeongbu buildings — Jeongbondang Hall, Hyeopseondang Hall and Seokhoekdang Hall — as well as modern-era building sites, confirming the value of the original location and giving the site outstanding historical and academic value.
