Gahoe Museum, Folk art museum in Gahoe-dong, South Korea.

The Gahoe Museum spans two floors in a traditional Korean house and contains over 2,000 folk paintings and religious amulets from Korean culture.

Founded in 2002 by Yoon Yeolsu, the museum transformed his personal collection of 1,500 historical items into a public institution displaying Korean artistic heritage.

The museum exhibits hundreds of folk paintings that represent daily life, religious practices, and traditional symbols from the Korean peninsula.

Located at 52 Bukchon-ro in Seoul, visitors can reach the museum via Line 3 Anguk Station, with operating hours from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
