Dahean Hospital Historic Site
Dahean Hospital Historic Site in Seoul (101 Daehak-ro, Jongno District) is a lasting testimonial of the oldest western-style hospital building in Korea. Daehan Hospital was established in 1907 through the merger of three existing medical institutions, namely, Gwangjewon Hospital, the Medical School and its affiliated hospital, and the Korean Red Cross Hospital1.
The old building is now part of the Seoul National University Hospital and hosts The Museum of Medicine.
