The Seosomun Gate area, which is located outside Seomun Gate, is regarded as a sacred place for many Korean Catholics. During the 19th century, the church suffered persecution for introducing Catholicism in the country. A series of persecutions followed over the years, notably the Sinyu Persecution in 1801 and the Byeongbin Persecution in 1866. The memorial tower in the center of the park is for the 44 martyrs who died for their Catholic faith during the persecution. It was originally established in December 1984 and rebuilt on May 15, 1999. The tower consists of three granite pillars: the middle one is 15 meters high while the two pillars on both sides are each 13 meters high.

Seosomun Historic Park is the scenic park for quick resting and walk. The location of Seosomun Park is a historic location where as being right outside the walled gate, it was the place of large markets and for such reasons the site of execution to get mass attention in a way familiar to Place de la Concorde in Paris. It was the site where lots of Christians were executed in late 19C when Christianity was first introduced to Korea. It's currently being renovated into Seosomun Historic and Cultural Museum. To be completed in late '17, if you are a Christian or interested in the historic transportation of Chosun Dynasty in late 19th to 20th Century, it's a must-visit site :)
