 1 What is
Seoul
City Wall?

Embracing Korean history is engraved in Seoul City Wall. The wall preserves a succession of building
technics and structure developed by the Korean people from the Three Kingdoms period onwards. It also shows

History the whole process of building-technic development during Joseon.

Seoul City Wall was originally built about 620 years ago. The actual construction work continued
for 98 days, half in the winter and half in the summer of 1394. Some 197,400 people were mobilized for the
construction of the wall, which was divided into 97 sections of around 600 feet. The sections were named in the
order of the characters in the Thousand Character Classic, a primer for teaching Sino-Korean. Workers from same
counties and prefectures were assigned to a specific section. Originally, wall sections on flat ground were built of
rammed earth, while those on mountainous terrain were built of stone. However, in 1422, the earthen sections of
the wall were replaced with stone as well. In 1704, another massive restoration and rebuilding project was carried
out, as parts of the wall had collapsed over the course of time. And since then several restorations have been carried
out, too. During the construction of the wall, records of the works were inscribed on the stone blocks of the wall.

Seoul City Wall lost a large part of its former appearance during the country’s modernization.
In 1899, the first tram lines were built to connect Seoul with outlying communities, and the wall gates lost their
original function. Thereafter, the wall connected to the gates were demolished for the expansion of the city’s road
networks from 1907. In the Japanese colonial period, Japanese governors deliberately dismantled the wall gates
or neglected to be damaged. Donuimun and Souimun Gate were dismantled and Gwanghuimun and Hyehwamun
Gate were seriously damaged. Also the wall was damaged in that local residents built their houses too near to it.
After Korean liberation from Japan, the wall continued to be damaged in the rush of modernization.

Reconstruction of Seoul City Wall began at a site around Sukjeongmun Gate, behind the
presidential residence, shortly after a unit of the North Korean Special Forces infiltrated Seoul on 21
January 1968. That project was extended to the entire wall section from 1974. However, the integrity of Seoul
City Wall was damaged in places as conservation and restoration works were overly focused on rejoining severed
sections. Seoul Metropolitan Government fully recognized these problems, and established the department
exclusively responsible for the wall, Seoul City Wall Division in September 2012. And the city government drew up
master plan for the conservation and management of Seoul City Wall in accordance with the criteria for UNESCO
World Heritage Sites in October 2013.

As of 2014, some 70% (12.8km) of entire Seoul City Wall has been restored, and Sukjeongmun,
Gwanghuimun, and Hyehwamun were rebuilt, although Gwanghuimun and Hyehwamun had to be put on
locations near their original sites.

[A stone block of the wall, inscribed as “Gangjayukbaekcheok”]
A Stone of the wall, written as “Gangjayukbaekcheok ” was discov-
ered in an embankment near the Namsan J-Gran House. The
stone block is the record of the constructon section and length.
*<National Treasure No.853> Suseon Jeondo (Complete Map of Seoul) The original position of this stone is unknown, as the embankment
[1840’s | by Kim Jeong-ho (presumed) | 82.5cmx 67.5cm | Korea University Museum Collection] was built with the stones acquired from the demolished wall.
The term Suseon means “the prime goodness”, coming from “shiji(史記, history book of Sima Qian). Suseon Jeondo is complete map of Seoul in Joseon, herein
the term Suseon is used to emphasis “building of the prime goodness starts in Seoul".
[Excavation site of Seoul City Wall at the foot of Hoehyeon,
Namsan] In 2013, a section of the wall(94.1m), which had been
demolished in 1925 (during the Japanese Colonial Period) to
build the Joseon Shinto Shrine was excavated. This section of the
wall, built with both original stone blocks from the wall and new
stone blocks used for its repair, shows the layers of 600-years
history of the wall.

 1 What is
Seoul
City Wall?

Cradling Seoul City Wall, which protected Seoul for some 600 years, closely affected the daily life of
the people inside. Residents were informed of the opening and closing times of the city gates by the sound of

Life the bell hanging in Bosingak belfry on Jongno. The bell was struck thirty-three times to lift the curfew in the early
morning and twenty-eight times to announce the curfew in the evening. The gates of private houses were opened
and closed according to the tolling of the bell, so the opening and closing times of the city gates controlled the
rhythm of the citizen’s life.

Seoul City Wall was also a boundary between life and death. Everyone who died, whether king
or commoner, had to be buried outside the wall. Thus, living within the wall signified life itself to the people in
Seoul.

Seoul City Wall represented the capital itself. People headed towards the capital from countryside
would see the wall in the distance and realized they were nearing their destination. The wall meant something
different to the scholars who traveled to the capital to take the state examinations, success in which would land
them a government post. Some of those candidates, hoping to pass the exam, would walk around the entire wall.
This practice became popular among local residents and developed into a traditional amusement going around
the wall and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Seoul City Wall helped unite the capital with its suburbs. Quarrying was prohibited inside the
wall, stones used for the wall had to be supplied from outside. Although the wall was built on the ridges of Mts.
Baegak, Nakta, Mongmyeok, and Inwang, the stone materials came from areas around Mts. Bukhansan and
Achasan outside the wall.

The capital defense system was anchored by Seoul City Wall. The wall alone was insufficient for
defending the capital. during times of external invasion or civil rebellion, the wall was never used for the purpose
of defense. Therefore, people commonly complained about all the work to build the wall in that is useless. On
September 11, 1971 in lunar calender, King Yeongjo proclaimed the decree on guarding the walls, declaring, “In
an emergency, I will be the first to go up to the fortified wall to defend the city with the people.” Moreover, the king
assigned each defense section to a community inside the wall so that they could protect their own section with
their own weapons in event of an emergency.

Seoul has expanded greatly, Seoul City Wall, which once
marked the boundary between Hanseongbu (Capital Prefec-
ture in Joseon) and its outskirts 600 years ago, has now
become a cultural property in the center of Seoul.

Looking Forward
To The Future

Seoul City Wall is the outcome of a succession of developments regarding the structure
and the techniques used to construct fortress walls on both mountainous terrain and flat ground since
Goguryeo. Seoul City Wall pairs royal palaces and fortress walls of Bukhansanseong and Namhansanseong,
which protected the capital city. The shape of the stone blocks and inscriptions on them indicate the construction
date and time period.
Seoul City Wall was built along the natural topography around Seoul. Respect for nature is a
long-held tradition of the Korean people. Thus, the wall, which was built in this natural way, became a part of the
natural environment over time and a subject of culture and art.
Seoul City Wall is one of the world’s longest and oldest city walls. It is rare to find city walls
the size of Seoul City Wall in any city with a population of ten million people or more. Although some sections are
damaged, 70% of the entire length of the wall has been preserved or rebuilt.

The wall construction in the reign
of King Taejo(1396)
The wall were completed by two sepa-
rate projects in January and August of
1396(lunar calender). The stone sec-
tions of the wall were built on moun-
tainous terrain, while rammed earth
sections were constructed on flat
ground. Natural stones were shaped
for use in the construction of the wall.
The wall construction in the reign
of King Sejong(1422)
The wall reconstruction project in Jan-
uary of 1422(lunar calender) replaced
the rammed earth sections with natu-
ral stones chiseled into kernel shape.
The wall construction in the reign
of King Sukjong (1704~)
The stone blocks used in the rebuild-
ing of the wall were made in a stand-
ardized size of 40~45cm in length and
width, preserving the wall more solid
than before.
Seoul City Wall was registered on UNESCO’s World Heritage Tentative List on 23 November
2012. Getting Seoul City Wall listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site is an expression of the Korean people’s
The wall construction in the reign desire and resolution to preserve the natural and historical landscape of Seoul and to hand it down to future
of King Sunjo (1800~) generations. The most important factor in preserving any cultural heritage is the love by the residents who live with
