"청주 수천암"의 두 판 사이의 차이

Sucheonam Ritual House, Cheongju

This is a ritual house for the maintenance of the tomb of Bak Hun (1484-1540), who founded the Mundogong Branch of the Miryang Bak Clan. Bak Hun was a Confucian scholar in the early period of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). During a series of literati purges in the late 15th and 16th centuries, a number of Confucian literati were persecuted by their political rivals. He was exiled for nearly 15 years beginning in 1519, before settling in Cheongju. His tomb is located on the hill to the north of this building. In addition to Bak's tomb, there is also a stupa on the hill. It enshrines the remains of a Buddhist monk, Seonjeong, who once lived in this house during the middle period of the Joseon Dynasty. This ritual house was repaired in 1914.
