Visit details

Unhyeongung in Unni-dong, Jongno-gu, is a historic site, a royal-family residence rather than a full palace. It was the home of Heungseon Daewongun’s family and where Gojong was born and raised until he became king. Many late-Joseon reforms and isolation policies began here. Main buildings are Noandang and Norakdang (completed September 1864) and Irodang (added six years later). There were four gates; one remains. Norakdang was used for family rites and feasts; Noandang was Daewongun’s sarangchae, a Korean-tile house with delicate eaves.
