Text description provided by the architects. Seonnongdan is a place where the king used to perform ancestral rites to pray for the next year of good harvest. Going through Japanese colonial era and rapid urbanization in 60s and 70s, the original figure has been distorted left to be in shabby condition and put a side on a corner. Through an architectural design competition, Seonnongdan was designated to be history and culture park, in which formality of the rituals merges with the actual historical and cultural content of the place.
