The Ungjin Baekje History Museum (웅진백제역사관) was built to promote Baekje's history and culture from Woongjin, which Baekje chose as its second capital, and Gongju, now. Through various media techniques, the traces of Baekje that remain throughout Gongju City were reproduced in the shape of the time.
Relocation of the capital of Baekje
Goguryeo bordered Baekje to the north. Baekje fought with each other to expand its territory to the north and Goguryeo to the south. Goguryeo was on the defensive as King Geunchogo of Baekje attacked Pyongyang Castle and King Gogukwon of Goguryeo died. However, Goguryeo, which developed its national power, began to pressure Baekje when King Gwanggaeto captured 58 provinces of Baekje and took the oath of a servant from King Asin. When King Jangsu, who succeeded King Gwanggaeto to the throne, moved the capital to Pyongyang, Baekje prepared for Goguryeo's attack by asking for help from northern China. However, Goguryeo sent a monk Dorim as a spy to understand the internal situation of Baekje. Eventually, in September 475, Goguryeo crossed the Han River and attacked Baekje, capturing the capital Hanseong, and killing King Gaero of Baekje. King Munju, who took over the throne in a chaotic situation, had to find a new capital to be the center of re-establishing Baekje.

Wonnyeong (475) King Munju of the Three Kingdoms Period
Located on the border between Geumseong-dong and Ungjin-dong, Gongju-si, the place name is the tomb of kings and royalty of Baekje during the Eungjin period 475-588 located on the slope of the Namjok in Songsan-ri, Gongju-eup. Initially, 17 tombs were investigated, but only seven tombs, including the tomb of King Muryeong, have been restored. These tombs are divided into two types, the Gul-type Stone Room Tomb Chaguar, and the Brick Tombs, depending on the shape of the tomb. Tombs 1 to 5 are cave-type stone chamber tombs traditionally used by Baekje, and the ceiling is finished in the form of a dome after making a wooden room with stones, and Tomb No. 6 and King Muryeong are brick tombs influenced by the Southern Dynasty of China and have a short tunnel-type wooden room in front of the tunnel-type wooden room. Except for the tomb of King Muryeong, there were few burial items left due to theft, but it is a very important relic that shows the excellence of Baekje culture and active external exchanges during the Eungjin Dynasty. On July 8, 2015, it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as the "Baekje Historic Site".
