• Information
  Introduction
  Established on March 20, 1918, Jumunjin Lighthouse was the first lighthouse in the Gangwon-do region. The lighthouse is 3m in diameter at the base and 10m in height with white mortar covering the exterior wall. The building shows the early structure of the country’s lighthouse architecture, which is a great value in terms of the nation’s architectural history. The light signal blinks at 15-second intervals and can be seen from 37km away. The lighthouse was destroyed during the Korean War but was restored in 1951.
