The Dap-dong Catholic Church, built in 1897 with the help of French missionaries, is the first of its kind in South Korea. French Catholic bishops chose this site as it was considered the gateway to Seoul, which made it beneficial for foreign trade.
The design of the cathedral evolved throughout the early 1900s from semi-Gothic to Romanesque. The exterior is clad in red bricks, while an octagonal star on the cathedral tower is said to represent a compass of true life for all who choose to follow it. The cathedral grounds have been the site of many protests, particularly during the late 1980s and the rise of the democratisation movement. You can join a walking tour to discover more about this historic Incheon attraction.
