Gahoe-dong Catholic Church Sacred Heritage Gallery

On Easter Sunday in 1795, the first Mass in Korea was celebrated here in Bukchon.

A priest who crossed the border into Joseon. The faithful who welcomed him and protected him at the risk of their lives. This gallery tells the story of how faith quietly flourished through the alleyways of Bukchon despite persecution.

From the first Mass to the Sinyu Persecution, this gallery traces the seven-year history inscribed in Bukchon.
