A ooden building with Korean roof tile, Gimje Dongheon, is facing the southeast with the frontside of 7 kan's, lateral side of 4 kan's and half-hipped roof. Used as the eup office from the period of imperialist Japan until the early 1960's, this ancient building had been left unattended for a long time since the eup office moved to other place. Noted as the only dongheon currently survived with the inner house adjacent to it, Gimje dongheon has been repaired several times in recent years.
