Incheon Breaks Ground on New 'Integrated Veterans Hall' for Veterans' Families

On December 4, Incheon City held a groundbreaking ceremony for the Integrated Veterans Hall in Ganseok-dong, Namdong-gu.

The Integrated Veterans Hall, which will bring together office spaces for various veterans organizations, will be constructed with a total project cost of 29.6 billion won. The building will have four floors above ground and a total floor area of 4,600 square meters. Completion is targeted for January 2027.

The facility will house veterans organization offices, a multipurpose room, meeting rooms, a health promotion room, and rest areas. It is planned to operate as a veterans complex facility that integrates welfare, culture, and veterans services.

The current Incheon Veterans Hall, which was completed 37 years ago, is outdated and cramped. As a result, only three out of Incheon's 13 veterans organizations-the Disabled Veterans Association, the Bereaved Families Association of the Fallen Soldiers, and the Widows Association of the Fallen Soldiers-are located there. The remaining 10 veterans organizations are scattered across various public and rental buildings.

Yoo Jeongbok, Mayor of Incheon, stated, "The construction of the Integrated Veterans Hall will serve as an opportunity to elevate Incheon's status as a city of national defense and veterans affairs. We will continue to implement policies that honor and robustly support the lives of veterans' families."
