National Gyeongguk University Museum

The National Kyungook University Museum opened in March 1979, coinciding with the establishment of Andong University. It goes beyond being a simple university museum, serving as the only comprehensive museum in the northern Gyeongsangbuk-do province. The museum's collection encompasses a wide range of traditional cultural artifacts, including historical, archaeological, artistic, and folk materials. The exhibits provide a systematic understanding of the history of the Andong region, aiding in the education and research of students and faculty, while also promoting awareness of traditional culture among local residents. The museum houses approximately 5,000 artifacts, ranging from the prehistoric period to the modern era. Notable items include the Andong Seoksaja (a designated cultural heritage site of Gyeongsangbuk-do province), the Imha Temple Stele Inscription, and artifacts excavated from the tomb of Lee Eung-tae, known for the "Letters from Mother."
