Birthplace and Shrine of Na Yong-gyun, Jeongeup

Built in the 1890s, this house has great historical value as the birthplace of Na Yong-gyun (1895–1984), who strove for national independence during the Japanese colonial period and later contributed to the nation's development as a leader in parliamentary politics after the founding of the Republic of Korea. Today only some of the foundation stones of the main women's quarters (anchae) remain, while the men's quarters (sarangchae), gatehouse (mungan-chae) and storehouse (gobang) are preserved, and a shrine stands near the birthplace.
