Description:
Kunsan National University Museum collects, preserves, studies and manages a variety of materials related to human life. Those materials represent different fields such as archeology, history, art, and folklore. In addition, we also fulfill academic and educational demands by supporting the research and educational activities of faculty members and students of the university, and the museum contributes to the cultural uplift of our local community. We also focus on the excavation, collection, preservation and research of the artifacts of the Baekje kingdom, which has been the cultural root of this region.
