Ganghwa History Museum

Ganghwa History Museum is a public museum established to preserve, research, and exhibit Ganghwa's cultural heritage. It was originally located next to Gapgotdondae and was moved to its current location in 2010. It is equipped with various auxiliary facilities, including a permanent exhibition hall, a special exhibition hall, and a video room. The permanent exhibition hall displays cultural artifacts such as relics excavated from Ganghwa's prehistoric sites and Goryeo royal tombs, as well as items held by hyanggyo and traditional temples, while the special exhibition hall hosts special exhibitions on diverse themes every year. To help visitors understand Ganghwa's history, it also operates a video room and educational programs, fulfilling its role as a complex cultural space. Ganghwa History Museum is located next to the Dolmen Park, where visitors can see Ganghwa dolmens designated as a World Heritage Site and the Ganghwa Jiseokmyo, a representative relic of the Bronze Age and a megalith measuring 710 cm in length and 550 cm in width.
