About
Situated at the foot of Taehwasan Mountain in Gongju, Magoksa Temple was established in 640 during the reign of Queen Seondeok of the Silla dynasty. It was originally founded as a grand temple, but only few major halls and gates remain preserved today along with several significant cultural relics and heritages. The temple site was used as a refuge site during times of war, and it survived the the Imjin War (1592-1598) and the Korean War (1950-1953).
