The building for Salt Gallery is the original stone-built salt storage in 1945, which
remained intact. Previously a wooden storage for salt, it was later used as a warehouse for materials,
and it is now transformed into a Salt Gallery after remodeling in 2007. The gallery was thought to a
source of important historical data for salt farms since it remains the old scene
from the past. Also, it offers a modern stone-built storage at this exhibition hall.
The gallery exhibits everything about salt, from stories to anthropological aspects. In particular, the exhibition tries to break down the misunderstanding in which salt is thought to be the principal factor of diabetes and high blood pressure, and acknowledge the useful health benefits of salt by explaining the different types of salt uses. Beyond the general information on salt, the history behind salt is also explained. Also, daily lives of the people living in Taepyeong Salt Farm, the process of making salt and information about Hamcho (Salicornia herbacea salt) are also showcased in this gallery. - Modern Cultural Heritage No. 361 - Opening Date: July 14, 2007 |
