INTRODUCE

Field of anti-communist campaign, remains of the Korean War


反共斗争的现场以及6.25战争的伤痕遗留下来的记忆的储藏所


 
Cheorwon Methodist Church was a typical church at the time of the Japanese occupation in Cheorwon area. It was the first building in Cheorwon that was built with red bricks, and then it was extended to 3371.916 square meters for land, 654.5484 square meters per floor; it was 3 story building with a basement. The church with 500 members continued missionary actives and educational activities until 8.15 liberation. During the Korean War, the church was used for anti-communist campaign for Christian youth and students. However, North Koreans started using this building as barracks and used the church basement for a place of massacre atrocities. The building was destroyed during the war making it almost unrecognizable, today only the land and bits of trails are left. May 27, 2002 this church was registered as Modern Cultural Heritage Cultural Property No. 23.

 

铁原监理教会是日帝强占期当时铁原地区的代表性教会。1920年铁原最早使用红色砖头建筑,而于1936年以占地1,020坪建筑面积198坪的地下1层、地上三层规模新建,当时信徒人数达到500多名。8.15解放前为止,进行了宣教活动与育英事业,而6.25战争当时以铁原监理教会为中心展开了基督教青年与学生的反共斗争。但是此后北韩军征用为兵营,教会地下室成为虐杀良民的野蛮行为的场所,具有了痛苦的历史。在战争中,建筑物被破损而几乎看不出原来的形状,现在只遗留着教会遗址与一部分痕迹,于2002年5月27日开始作为近代文化遗产登录文化财第23号管理。
