Why go
The museum was created in a former school in Changseon, Namhae. However, official minutes of Namhae County Council's August 7, 2026 budget committee say it had been temporarily closed since March 2026, after the concession contract ended because of the operator's financial difficulties. The county proposed staffing and operating funds for reopening. An actual reopening date has not been independently confirmed as of October 2026; do not assume exhibitions or activities are currently accessible.
