Former Gyonam YMCA Building, Daegu

The Former Gyonam YMCA Building in Daegu was a meeting place for leading figures during the March First Independence Movement under Japanese colonial rule, and it served as a base for the Christian nationalist movement, including the Korean Production Movement, the Christian Rural Movement and the Singanhoe Movement (a coalition of nationalist groups). Built in 1914, it is a two-storey red-brick building that retains the features of brick masonry architecture of the 1910s–20s, such as a cornice decorating the line between the first and second floors and square windows set beneath arched lintels.
