Korea Heritage Service · khs.go.krBuilt in the 1920s, this house was home to descendants of Prince Yulwon, a grandson of Grand Prince Hyoryeong, and is an improved hanok (Korean-style house) built in the modern era. The house faced demolition after being designated part of the Suwan Residential Land Development District in 2004, but thanks to the owner's strong determination to protect the site and house where their ancestors had lived for generations, it was relocated to and is now preserved in a neighbourhood park within the development district.
