Jeju-mok Government Office (Korean: 제주목 관아; Hanja: 濟州牧官衙) was the Tamna and Joseon–era administrative complex for Jeju Island. The former complex is now a Historic Site of South Korea.[1]

Description

The area was used as Jeju's administrative center for many centuries.[1] During the 1910 to 1945 Japanese colonial period, the complex was completely demolished under the colonial government. The former site was excavated from 1991 to 1998. It was designated a Historic Site of South Korea in 1993. The site was recreated to its precolonial appearance based on historical and archaeological research. Restoration work was completed in 2002.[2]
