- overview
Located in Sinpung-ri, Yulchon-myeon, Yeosu-si, Jeollanam-do, Aeyangwon Church (Reverend Son Yangwon Martyr Memorial Hall) commemorates
Reverend Son Yangwon.
He began his religious activities and relief efforts at a group home for patients suffering from Hansen's Disease located in Aeyangwon Church, but he was
later detained at Yeosu Police Office because he refused to honor Japanese Shinto shrines in 1940.
The Memorial Hall's construction was completed on March 27, 1994 in order to commemorate Son Yangwon, who was shot and
killed by the North Korean army during the Korean War.
The exhibition hall on the first floor displays photos of Son, photos related to Christianity, keepsakes and calligraphy
artwork, and the exhibition hall on the second hall displays his prison writings and old books.
