Sutasa Temple Three-story Stone Pagoda

This stone pagoda at Sutasa Temple has a three-storey body set on a single-tier base. The base is undecorated, and although the body stones of the second and third storeys are missing, the surviving first-storey body stone has pilaster-like corner posts carved in shallow relief at each edge. The corners of the roof stones curve sharply upward, and the underside of each roof stone carries three tiers of eave supports at the first and second storeys and two tiers at the third. The pagoda is presumed to have been built in the late Goryeo period. Since the width of the roof stones barely narrows from one storey to the next, it is thought to have originally been a tall, slender pagoda of considerable size.
