The official Gyeonggyojang historic residence page states it is temporarily closed for repairs from 15 September through 12 December 2026. Normal visiting hours are Tuesday–Sunday 09:00–18:00, last entry 17:30, with free walk-in admission, but the closure notice takes priority. The site is at 29 Saemunan-ro, Jongno-gu, inside Kangbuk Samsung Hospital, about five minutes on foot from Seodaemun Station exit 4 (Line 5). It has no dedicated car park; nearby hospital or museum parking is paid. Do not assume the final repair day is a confirmed reopening date; check the follow-up announcement.
