The Yongsan History Museum was created by remodeling the Yongsan Railway Hospital, which was built in 1928.
Since the building was remodeled as much as possible without damaging the building, there is no big difference from the appearance of the old Yongsan Railroad Hospital, such as the red bricks on the outer wall.
Since the Yongsan Museum of History was an area that was used as a pretext for the Japanese invasion of the continent in the past, there are many traces of independence activists.You can also learn about the modern and contemporary history of Yongsan, such as Haebangchon and Samgakji Art Gallery Street.

Seosomun Historical Park is very meaningful. This is because there is a Catholic Seoul pilgrimage route that the Vatican approved as a world international pilgrimage site for the first time in Asia.
And here is the Seosomunseong Regional History Museum.
This place is not only a sacred place for Catholic martyrs, but also preserves the history, culture, and social aspects of the late Joseon Dynasty.
There are many works and materials on display, so there is a lot to see. It is a space of peace and coexistence where people of different religions can freely enjoy.
There is also a park right above it, so why don't you visit this place where you can visit the museum and enjoy the park when the weather is nice?
