Mukjae Historic House

This house has been home to successive generations of the ancestors of its owner, Kim Seung-jin. The exact date of construction is unknown, but an inscription carved into a roof tile of the shrine building suggests it was built in 1516, the eleventh year of King Jungjong of Joseon. It consists of three buildings: the main house, the servants' quarters (haengnangchae), and the shrine. The main house follows the H-shaped floor plan often found in old-style houses. The arrangement of the storeroom behind the sarangbang, the men's reception room, and the layout of the servants' quarters show that this is the oldest house in the village.
