Wooseokheon Natural History Museum

The Wooseokheon Natural History Museum, located in Jinjeop-eup, Namyangju-si, is named after the pen name 'Wooseok [愚石]' of founder Kim Jeong-woo, and means 'the house of the lovely stone.' It opened in 2003 to serve as a venue for local culture and educational activities through various authentic fossils and minerals. The exhibition halls consist of the 2nd and 3rd floors and an annex (Discovery Center), and through geological natural history specimens such as dinosaurs, minerals, and rocks systematically collected over about 30 years, it introduces third-generation exhibition techniques such as free-standing movable display stands and four-sided observation display stands to provide convenience for visitors.
