The House of Changwon was home to Du-cheol (pen name Toeeun), a famous scholar. This house is now used as a traditional lifestyle and culture learning center for studying traditional Korean culture and customs. Built on a 10,209 ㎡ site, the house contains 14 buildings, including one exhibiting a collection of farming tools. The establishment itself is one of few living artifacts in the country, offering a peek into how ancient Koreans lived. The complex serves as the venue for a cultural class for visitors and other events and functions such as a chapel for traditional weddings and other ceremonies.
