Overview
This is the head house of Nongam I Hyeon-bo, located in Gasong-gil, Dosan-myeon, Andong-si. I Hyeon-bo served as Saganwonjeongeon in 1504 (the 10th year of Yeonsangun) and was exiled to Andong due to the king's anger. The place where Nongam Head House was located was Buncheon Village, but Buncheon Village was submerged due to the construction of Andong Dam in 1976. Since then, the head house, shrine, and Geunggudang, which had all been relocated to various places in Andong, were moved to one place by I Seong-won, a descendant of the Yeongcheon I family. In 2007, Bungang Confucian Academy was rebuilt and is now called Bungang Village and open to the public.
