It follows the layout with the lecture hall, Sunghyeondang, in front and the shrine, Chungnyeolsa, behind. It was torn down during the Daewongun's rule and rebuilt in 1920. When it was restored in 1986, Heo Yujeon, a Goryeo chief state councilor (munhasijung), was enshrined with them in the highest place. Two juniper trees stand in the yard, and in summer crape myrtle flowers bloom around the wall.
