Former Site of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea
The Former Site of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea is a Shikumen-style building located on Madang Road, built in 1925. Following the March 1st Movement, the Korean Provisional Government moved several times before relocating here in 1926, when Kim Gu served as the President of the State Council (equivalent to president). In 1932, due to the arrest of members of the Korean Provisional Government by Japanese authorities, the government evacuated from Shanghai. However, it is the longest-functioning and best-preserved “former site” of the Korean Provisional Government in Shanghai. The site was officially opened to the public in 1993 and has hosted three South Korean presidents and three speakers of the National Assembly. It is referred to as the “shrine of the Korean national independence movement.”
Location
