Museum of the ancient tombs in Daseong-dong

대성동고분박물관 · Gyeongnam · Museums & galleries

The Museum of the ancient tombs in Daseong-dong displays artifacts unearthed from the four excavations of the Daeseongdong Tumuli. Highlighting often overlooked relics of the Geumgwan Gaya, the museum has three ground-floor exhibit halls and several underground auxiliary facilities. The main exhibits include a life-sized statue of a mounted soldier and a warrior statue, both recreated based on bones excavated from the tumuli of Yean-ri. The museum relies heavily on videos and dioramas to help visitors explore all the museum has to offer.
