Gimpo Jangneung History and Culture Center Transformed into an Interactive Exhibition Facility
Reopening on the 27th after Renovation Completion
Gimpo Jangneung History and Culture Center is being transformed into an interactive exhibition facility. According to the Cultural Heritage Administration's Royal Tombs and Relics Headquarters on the 26th, it will reopen on the 27th after renovations.
The owners of Gimpo Jangneung are the posthumously honored Wonjong (1580?1619) and Queen Inheon Gu (1578?1626), the parents of King Injo of Joseon. Injo, who ascended the throne through a coup, posthumously honored his parents to assert legitimacy and elevated their tomb, 'Heunggyeongwon,' to 'Jangneung.' This is why Gimpo Jangneung has the characteristics of both a royal family tomb called 'won' and a royal tomb.
