File:KOCIS Korea Gwanghuimun Open 08 (12606759545).jpg
Gwanghuimun will be open to the public for the first time in 39 years. It has been closed for restoration since 1975.
One of the Four Small Gates in the historic fortress walls of Seoul, Gwanghuimun was built in 1396 in the southeastern part of the walled capital. It was first called Sugumun(“Water Channel Gate”) but soon came to be more widely known as Namsomun (“Small South Gate”). The gate was rebuilt in 1711, and the gatehouse was completed in 1719. It was in that year the gate’s name plaque was hung. The gatehouse and battlements around it were destroyed during the Korean War, only to be restored in 1976. The current Gwanghuimun is located slightly futher south of the original site due to roads being built there. –from Information Plaque

광희문 39년 만에 개방
광희문은 서울성곽의 사소문 중에 동남방향에 있는 성문이다. 서울성곽이 축성된 1396년에 지어졌으며, 수구문이라고도 불렀다. 속칭 남소문이라고도 한다. 광희문은 1711년에 개축하였으며, 성문 위 문루는 1719년에 이르러 완성되었다. 광희문이라는 편액은 이 때 써 붙였다. 그 후, 6.25 전쟁으로 문루와 성문 위 여장은 다시 파괴되었으며 1976년에 고증을 거쳐 복워하였다. 지금의 광희문은 도로를 개통하면서 원래 위치에서 약간 남쪽으로 옮겨 복원한 것이다. – 광희문 표지 안내문
