Jacheondae Pavilion in detail
Where the name Jacheondae Pavilion comes from and how it is linked to Choe Chi-won
The name Jacheondae Pavilion comes from the red color of the water in a pond beside a rocky hill. Jacheondae Pavilion is said to be the pavilion where Choe Chi-won, a writer of late Unified Silla, read and reflected. It remains as a local historic site honoring Choe Chi-won's writings and ideals.
History of Jacheondae Pavilion: from a rocky hill at Haje Port to beside Okgu Hyanggyo, rebuilt in 1967
The current Jacheondae Pavilion was rebuilt in 1967. It stands at 33-50 Gwangwol-gil, Okgu-eup, the same address as Okgu Hyanggyo. It first stood on a small rocky hill at Haje Port (Seonyeon-ri, Okgu-gun). It was torn down in the late Joseon period. In 1934, Choe Hak-su, then the county governor of Okgu-gun, restored it with local Confucian scholars. It was later moved beside Okgu Hyanggyo, and the current building does not keep its original form.

Jacheondae Pavilion is a wooden pavilion in the Joseon style. It is small but has a simple frame, with painted decoration, a base platform and railings. Although it was rebuilt in modern times, it became a province-designated Cultural Heritage Material on April 1, 1984.
