Ojukheon House & Gangneung Municipal Museum
A compact heritage complex centered on Ojukheon, an early-Joseon house associated with Shin Saimdang and Yi I, together with memorial and local-history museum spaces.
Current 2026 visitor information still lists 09:00–18:00 visiting with entry by 17:00. The holiday rule matters: on Jan 1, Seollal day and Chuseok day, the outdoor Ojukheon grounds remain open but indoor museum galleries close.
Why go
A strong counterpoint to Gangneung’s beaches and coffee culture. Visit for preserved architecture, biography, scholarship and local history rather than a quick photo stop.
