Royal Edict Pavilion
This pavilion was built in 1824 to house a royal edict conferred by King Taejong (r. 1400-1418) to Seong Seok-rin (1338-1423), a civil official of the early Joseon period.
Before ascending to the throne, King Taejong was involved in the murder of his own brothers for the crown. His father, King Taejo, the founder of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1910), was so distressed by the incident that he retired to his hometown in Hamheung (in present-day Hamgyeongnam-do Province, North Korea). In order to restore his relationship with his father, King Taejong sent Seong Seok-rin, who was an old friend of King Taejo, to Hamheung. Seong successfully persuaded the former king and brought him back to the capital. In recognition of his efforts and achievement, King Taejong bestowed Seong with honorable titles, and appointed him as a meritorious subject by conferring this royal edict in 1402. The royal edict was preserved by Seong's descendants, who had moved to the Jinan area in the mid-15th century. The edict was designated as Treasure No. 746 in 1983.
The building was repaired several times. To the left of the pavilion is Okcheonsa Shrine of the Changnyeong Seong Clan.
