Cheongsong Deogyangjae Hall

This hall was built to enshrine three members of the Hagyugong branch of the Dalseong Seo clan: Seo Yun, the ninth-generation descendant who first settled in Cheongsong, his grandson Seo Chang, and Seo Chang's grandson Seo Bong. It is thought to have been first built around 1800. The shrine, which had been demolished under the order abolishing Confucian academies (seowon), was restored in 2006; at that time Seo Do, titled Hagyugong, the founding ancestor of the branch, was installed in the chief position of the shrine, and the ancestral tablets of the three men above were reinstated, and memorial rites have since been held every year on the first 'jeong' day of the ninth month, the first day in that month bearing the heavenly stem 'jeong' in the sexagenary cycle. Today only the ancestral hall (jaesa), the gate house, the storehouse and the caretaker's residence remain, together forming a square, ㅁ-shaped layout.
