Former Sipjauiwon, Gunsan

Former Sipjauiwon, Gunsan combines a Japanese-style house with Western-style living spaces, such as a reception room, in an eclectic form. First built in 1936, it later opened in 1952 — during the Korean War — as a specialist paediatric clinic, and remained in use until the 1980s. The traces of that era survive vividly in the memories of local residents today, giving the building high value as a piece of the region's modern cultural heritage.
