Namdaemun - also known as the Great South Gate - was built in 1398, serving as the main southern entrance into the walled city of Seoul.

The two-storey pagoda which stood on a stone base was the oldest wooden structure in Seoul.

It was one of the few buildings to survive both the Japanese occupation and the Korean War.
