Opened in 2012, the Exhibition Hall of Chungju Goguryeo Monument is the only place in Korea where visitors can see the Goguryeobi Monument, a stone stele from the ancient Goguryeo Kingdom. Chungju was once a strategic stronghold, controlling key mountain passes and the Namhangang River. The monument provides evidence of Goguryeo’s occupation of the area for more than 70 years.
Although it had long stood in Ipseok Village, its historical significance was not recognized until 1979. It is believed to have been erected after King Jangsu expanded Goguryeo’s territory into the Namhangang River basin. Beyond the monument itself, the exhibition hall presents Goguryeo’s history, culture, legends, and daily life, as well as information on the monument’s discovery and other major Goguryeo relics.
