The Yeongcheon Battle Patriots' Memorial Hall, located in Gogyeong-myeon, Yeongcheon-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, commemorates the patriotic history of the 'Battle of Yeongcheon', which was a key point of the Nakdong River defense line and a watershed in the war during the Korean War, and is a history and security education space created to enable the war veterans and post-war generations to interact and commemorate the patriotic spirits.
The Battle of Yeongcheon, which took place in September 1950, is considered a decisive victory in which the South Korean army blocked the North Korean army's major offensive, turned the tide of the war, and provided an opportunity for a turnaround. The memorial hall organizes a variety of exhibition media, including artifacts, three-dimensional models, videos, and experiential content, to systematically convey these historical facts and heritage. The first exhibition hall is the Yeongcheon Battle Reenactment Hall, and the second exhibition hall is the Yeongcheon Battle Memorial Hall. You can look at major events in chronological order from World War II to the liberation of Korea.
