| Introduction |
| Ojukheon
is an important house which shows the lifestyle of the Joseon Dynasty
(1392-1910). It is one of the oldest preserved Korean houses. In
Mongryongsil
room of Ojukheon, one of Korea's great men, Yulgok Yi-I (1536-1584) was
born. It is told that his mother Sin Saimdang, also a heroin in Korean
history, had dream of a dragon before she gave birth to Yulgok. In
rememberance of his birth, the Yulgok Festival is held annually at
Ojukheon.
There are many traditional materials and regional remains which are
displayed in the private museum. You can find the painting of Yulgok in
Munseongsa (the ancestral shrine of Yulgok).
In the Yulgok Memorial Hall you can see the artwork of the talented Yulgok family. In addition, various Buddhist artwork, ceramics, pictures and common living appliances are on display in the Folk Tradition Hall, History Culture Hall, and the outdoor exhibition area.
