Dongnaeeupseong Fortress Site, Medieval fortress site in Dongnae District, South Korea
The fortress features stone walls spanning 2.7 kilometers with six gates, each crowned by traditional Korean gate towers and defensive structures.
Construction began in 1021 during the Goryeo Dynasty, with significant expansions in 1446 when stone fortifications enhanced the original earthen walls.
The fortress represents traditional Korean military architecture through its oval layout, multiple gates, and strategic placement on mountain terrain.
Visitors can access the site daily from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM through Allak-dong in Dongnae District using local bus services.
Archaeological investigations since 1979 revealed numerous artifacts and human remains from the 16th-century Japanese invasions beneath the fortress grounds.
