Step into an older classroom
Gallery 1 at the Chungbuk Museum of Education in Cheongju includes a recreated classroom from the 1970s. It may bring back memories for adults and raise questions for children: what were lessons like before today's screens and devices?
From ancient times to today
According to the operator, Gallery 1 presents Korean and Chungbuk educational artefacts from the Three Kingdoms period to the present. Sections on the region's education and a nostalgic classroom make it easy to compare different generations of learning.
A different story upstairs
Gallery 2 follows changes in teaching materials by theme, with donated collections and experience areas. Look closely at the objects and ask who once used them and why. Their presence in the facility guide does not mean every activity is offered every day.
Three practical things to know
Search for 충북교육박물관 at 17 Gyoseo-ro, Sangdang-gu, Cheongju. The museum lists weekday sessions 09:00–12:00 and 13:00–17:00, with closures on weekends and public holidays. Admission is free, while food and drinks are not permitted. Group experience programmes and special classes have separate application information. Confirm temporary closures and booking details before travelling.
