  Introduction
  Pungnammun Gate was built during the Joseon dynasty in 1734 and is a designated Treasure. Pungnammun Gate was the southernmost gate among the four city gates of Jeonju. The structure was severely damaged by fire in 1767, followed by the restoration of the gate tower afterwards. The gate was burnt down once again during the Imjin War and was restored to the gate that is seen today.
