Bugang Cathedral is a cathedral belonging to the Catholic Diocese of Cheongju, located in Bugang-myeon, Sejong Special Self-Governing City. It is a place where you can see a unique architectural style that combines a traditional Hanok cathedral and a stone cathedral. The current stone cathedral was completed in 1962, and the previously used Hanok cathedral is also preserved, allowing you to see traditional Korean architecture and Romanesque church architecture at the same time. Bugang Cathedral has a history of contributing to the development of the local community through missionary activities and relief projects, and is a modern cultural heritage with both architectural historical value and religious significance. The bell tower located to the right of the cathedral entrance and the stone tablet inscribed with the words ‘Catholic Church of the Holy Name of the Virgin Mary’ are also characteristic attractions of this place.
