  • 5/5 JY P. 1 year ago on Google • 926 reviews
    The shrine is so beautiful and well maintained for walking. And since the old cultural heritage and the Buddha Triad are also present in the shrine, it feels like ‘the shrine is more like a shrine.’ It was early spring, so it was around 6 o'clock, just as the sun was setting. The sunlight falling on Father Kim Dae-geon's memorial stone made it feel even more sacred. And the cathedral building is a mixture of various styles, so it looks vaguely cool, and even babies like it.

    A quiet and peaceful cathedral in Ganggyeong If Ganggyeong Cathedral has modern beauty, this place has Korean classic comfort. If you pass by Nonsan and Iksan, stop by.

    This place is meaningful because it was near the Navawi Holy Site that Father Andrew Kim Dae-geon first arrived in Korea after being ordained a priest. This cathedral was built in 1906 and combines Korean architectural styles and Western Gothic styles. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, and the sanctuary is well-equipped with a prayer room and worship room, making it good for prayer and meditation. It used to be part of Ganggyeong, but as time passed, I went there and found that the administrative district sign had changed to Iksan. There is a walking pilgrimage road connected to a nearby sacred site, so it is good to walk if you walk carefully on the road. Perhaps because I visited on a rainy weekend, there weren't many pilgrims, so I was able to pray the Way of the Cross leisurely and pray the Adoration of the Eucharist at my leisure. I was thankful that I stayed there.

    (Translated by Google) When you walk through the quiet Nabawi Cathedral where you can enjoy contemplation while enjoying the cool breeze, anger ... no, healing springs up from deep within. I would like to thank the priests and nuns of Nabawi Cathedral for helping me to have this experience, and I would like to thank the mayor of Iksan and the staff. (Original) 시원한 바람을 맞으며 사색을 즐기는 조용한 나바위 성당을 거닐면 마음 속 깊은 곳에서부터 분노가... 아니, 힐링이 솟아오른다. 이런 경험을 할 수 있도록 도와주신 나바위성당 신부님과 수녀님들께 감사드리고, 익산시청장님과 직원들께도 감사드립니다.

    15.03.28 Following my parents' pilgrimage to the Holy Land Since the visit took place before 9 a.m., my family was the only one there. It is said that this cathedral was built in 1906 to commemorate Father Kim Dae-geon's landing at the Hwangsan ferry in 1845. When it was first built, it was a wooden building, but 10 years later, the wooden walls were torn down and converted to brick walls. What I found unusual was 1. I don't know much about the architectural style, but even though it was built in a Western style, it still has a traditional feel. 2. The fact that the Virgin Mary was standing in the Pieta statue, unlike the one I had seen before (Michelangelo). Finish with a 30-minute morning walk

    I visited the cathedral built in the early 20th century while traveling in Iksan after hearing that Father Kim Dae-geon was the first Asian priest to join the Holy Family Cathedral. I immediately felt that it was old as it was located on a quiet hill in a rural area.

    나바위성당 은 조선 현종 11년(1845년) 김대건 신부가 중국에서 사제서품을 받고 페레올 주교 다불뤼 신부와 함께 황산 나루터에 상륙한 것을 기념하기 위해 건립하였다. 초대주임이었던 베르모넬(장약슬,요셉) 신부가 중심으로 1906년 건물을 시공하여 1907년 완공하였다. 성당설계는 명동성당 포아넬 신부가 도왔고 공사는 중국인들이 맡았다. 나바위 성당은 우리나라 최초의 신부인 김대건 성인이 처음으로 전도하던 곳이어서 한국 천주교회에서 성지로 지정한 곳이며, 이 건물은 천주교의 한국 유입과 그 발전과정을 볼 때 서구식 성당 건축양식과 우리나라 건축양식을 잘 절충시켜 조화를 이루고 있는 초기 성당 건물이다. 이러한 역사성과 건축양식으로 인해 나바위 성당은 국가지정문화재(사적 318호) 로 지정되어 있다.1916~1917년까지 흙벽을 벽돌조로 바꾸고 고딕식 벽돌조 종각을 증축하였다. 한국문화의 특성에 맞게 한옥목조건물에 기와를 얹은 나바위 성당건물은 특히 회랑이 있어서 한국적인 미를 맛볼수 있는 곳이다. 채광을 위한 팔각형 창문은 밤이면 더할 수 없는 아름다움으로 소나무와 어울려 조화를 이룬다. 원래 이름은 화산 천주교회이었지만 현재 '나바위 성당'으로 개명하였다.

    (Translated by Google) It is the beauty of the holy land where the heart of the priest is melted. (Original) 신부님의 마음이 녹아있는 성지의 아름다움입니다.

    역사적으로 의미가 있는 곳이기도 하지만 그냥 성당 자체가 너무 이쁘던 곳 나바위도 정말 이쁘다. 처음 설립될때처럼 밑에 강이 흘렀으면 정말 절경이었을듯. 그게 좀 아쉬움

    익산의 유서깊은 성당이에요 본당건물이 특히 아름답고 성당 역사를 알아볼수 있는 전시관도 있어요. 성물 상점도 있어서 팔찌도 하나 샀어요.

    (Translated by Google) In modern history, the building is a Western-style brick building at the bottom, and the top is tiled like a hanok, showing the harmony between East and West. (Original) 근대사적으로 건물이 아래는 서양식 벽돌건축 위쪽은 한옥처럼 기와를 얹져 동서양의 조화를 보여줌 꼭한번 가볼만한 성당임

    나바위성당. 나바위란 너른 바위가 펼져저 있다고 해서 붙여진 이름이다 나바위성당은 우리나라 최초로 신부서품을 받은 김대건신부가 귀국하면서 첫발을 내딛은 역사적인곳을 기념하기 위하여 세운 성당 입니다.

👍👍 It's like stepping into an old tomb. The entrance to the museum was very impressive and nice. The tower was good, but the museum was also good... If the parking lot and surrounding area are well maintained, there will be a lot of vacancy.
