Jinju Fortress is a complex of military facilities and buildings built since the Three Kingdoms Period (57 BCE - 668) to protect Jinju from foreign invasion. Now widely regarded as the symbol of te city'slong history and culture, the fortress underwent major renovation in 1379 underthe leadership of Kim Jung-gwang, then governor of Jinju-mok. He replaced the earthen walls as part of the effort to keep his city from the Japanese pirates who plundered the Korean coastal areas so often during this period of history. The second major renovation which included building the inner fortress took place just after the Imjin Waeran, a war that devastated Korea for seven years following the Japanese invasion of 1592.
Today Jinju Fortress is largely related with the historic victory at the battle fought in 1592 in which a Joseon army of 3,800 men led by General Kim Si-min was supported by men and women of Jinju to bravely confront the invasion of 20,000-strong japanese force and defeat them. It is now commemorated as one of the three greatest victories Korea won against the Japanese invaders during that war. Jinju was attacked the following year, this time by over 10,000 fully armed troops. The entire population of Jinju, civilians as well as government officials, joined the Korean soldiers defending the fortress, and fought like heroes until the very last minute.
It was in the 1970s that the fortress began to be restored to its former shape with the rebuilding of Chokseongmun (1972) and the inner fortress and part of the outer wall in the west (1975). The fortress restoration project continued with the removal of private houses in andaround the fortress wall in 1979 and completed with the restoration of Gongbungmun in 2002.
