Main Building of Geoje Elementary School

This building is the main building of Geoje Elementary School, the oldest educational institution in Geoje. The facade is symmetrical, with classrooms arranged around a gabled entrance porch. Its exterior, built of granite quarried in abundance from the surrounding area at the time and dressed into rectangular blocks, takes the typical form of a modern-period school building. The building holds great historical value because the local community took part in its construction, with residents directly involved in quarrying and dressing the stone and in producing and transporting the red brick.
