Exhibition Hall 1: History of Gyeonggyojang House
A place where the spirit of the Provisional Government is still alive
Gyeonggyojang House was built in 1938 by Choi Chang-hak, who accumulated great wealth with his mining business during Japanese colonial rule.
When the Korean Provisional Government returned in 1945, Gyeonggyojang House was used as a place to conduct the Provisional Government’s activities and provide accommodations for Kim Gu and other officials.
After Kim Gu passed away in Gyeonggyojang House in 1949, it was used as the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China and Vietnam, and then as a health facility since 1967.
At that time, Gyeonggyojang House’s interior and exterior were renovated as a hospital, altering its original shape.
