Mokpo Modern History Museum No. 1
A museum inside Mokpo’s former Japanese consulate building, using one of the old downtown’s key modern-era structures to interpret the port city’s colonial and modern history.
Mokpo City’s current visitor information lists 09:00–18:00 opening, Monday closure, ticketing and entry until 17:00, and individual adult admission of KRW 2,000. A recent 2026 holiday notice also used the 09:00–18:00 operating window.
Why go
Use it as an anchor for a walking day in Mokpo’s old downtown: the preserved building gives architectural context, while the exhibits explain how the port city changed from the late 19th century through the 20th century.
