This is a jeongnyeo, a memorial gate erected to honour the loyalty, filial piety and fidelity shown across four generations of the Changnyeong Jo family. It commemorates the loyalty of Jo Eon-su, who served as a righteous-army soldier during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598); the filial piety of his grandson Jo Sun-ak and great-grandson Jo Hu-geon; and the fidelity of his daughter-in-law, Lady Yu of the Munhwa clan.
