Yangju Olleung Royal Tomb [UNESCO World Heritage]

양주 온릉(단경왕후) [유네스코 세계문화유산] · Gyeonggi · Palaces & heritage

Olleung Royal Tomb is the royal tomb of Queen Dangyeong (1487-1557), consort of King Jungjong, the 11th ruler of the Joseon dynasty. Queen Dangyeong married King Jungjong when she was 13 years old. In 1506, when King Jungjong ascended to the throne, she became a queen as well, but she was deposed due to her father leading a coup against her husband's acendancy. Therefore, her grave was not regarded as a royal tomb until 1739.
