Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
Established in 1594 by local Confucian scholars to commemorate the learning and virtue of Jo Uk and Jo Seong, and to enshrine their ancestral tablets. In 1713, it was granted the name 'Un Gye' by royal decree. In 1714, Shin Byeon, Jo Hyeong-saeng, and Jo Mun-hyeong were additionally enshrined, contributing to the veneration of former sages and local education. In 1871, it was demolished during the Daewongun's suppression of seowon, and the tablets were buried at the site, with only ancestral rites continuing. Later, in 1932, it was restored and remains to this day. The precincts include a 6-kan shrine, a 6-kan lecture hall, a spirit gate, and east and west side gates. The shrine enshrines Jo Uk as the main tablet, along with Jo Seong, Jo Hyeong-saeng, Shin Byeon, and Jo Mun-hyeong. The lecture hall consists of a central wooden floor and side rooms, used for various events, Confucian scholar gatherings, and academic lectures.
