Munmyo is a special place dedicated to Confucius, the legendary teacher whose wisdom forms the foundation of Confucianism. The shrine also honors his disciples and other great Confucian scholars. But Munmyo isn’t just a shrine—it's also where the top scholars of the Joseon dynasty studied and learned.

Originally called Munseonwangmyo during the Tang dynasty (when Confucius was honored as King Munseon), the name Munmyo has been used since the Yuan dynasty.

The Munmyo compound is divided into two main areas: Daeseongjeon, which houses the shrines, and Myeongnyundang, featuring seminar halls and other facilities.
You’ll also find two dormitories, Dongjae and Seojae, known together as Sungkyunkwan.
Outside Myeongnyundang stands an ancient ginkgo tree, designated as Natural Monument No. 59. In both spring and autumn, special rituals are held here to honor Confucius and his disciples.
