Kim Satgat Historic Site (난고 김삿갓 유적지)

Introduction

Nango Kim Satgat (1807-1863) was a prominent literary figure who traveled extensively across the Korean Peninsula, leaving behind a rich legacy of literary works. His sobriquet “Satgat” originated from his habitual wearing of a “satgat” (a traditional Korean hat) and his preference for introducing himself by this name. The historic site dedicated to him includes several key features: the house where he once lived, his tomb, a literary museum that showcases his life and works, and a sculpture of the poet.
