Jincheon Bell Museum (진천 종박물관)
The Jincheon Bell Museum opened in 2005 with the objective of promoting the unique artistic value of Korean bells. The museum’s location itself is also very meaningful, as Jincheon is home to the oldest steel production site in Korea. In the nearby area, Uncheon-dong, Beomjong (a temple bell) of the late United Silla Kingdom was discovered along with the remains of the Ongdusaji Cheoldanggan of the Goryeo dynasty.
