Summary

[edit]
Description

The Lavatory at Seonamsa is a rectangular wood building with an open entrance on the north side, built on elevated ground. One side is for male use and the other side is for female use. This wooden structure has ventilation lattices set high in the walls. Although it is a typical outdoor toilet, it is well kept and devoid of the usual odor. At the entrance of the lavatory, there is a stone basin for hand washing.

There is no documentation indicating the origin of Seonamsa's Lavatory, but it is thought to have existed since before the Jeongyujaeran War in 1597.

The Lavatory at Seonamsa has been designated as a Cultural Property Material #214, the first time a toilet has been recognized as an asset
