Unhyeongung
Unhyeongung was the residence of Emperor Gojong's father, Yi Haeung, better known as Heungseon Daewongun, and it was also where Gojong grew up before he ascended the throne at the age of 11. It was named Unhyeongung after a nearby hill on December 9, 1863, after Gojong ascended the throne.
One month after Gojong ascended the throne, Unhyeongung underwent major expansion at the order of Queen Mother Cho, and buidings such as Norakdang and Noandong were built at this time. It is believed that the Kim Seunghyeon House and Yuksadang, which lie to the west of Unhyeongung in Unni-dong and have been designated Seoul Folklore Material No. 19, were also part of Unhyeongung.
