The Jeonju Hyanggyo (Korean: 전주향교; Hanja: 全州鄕校) is a hyanggyo (school) originally established at the Gyeonggijeon Shrine site in Jeonju, Korea, sometime early in the 15th century, during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910).
[1] Gyeonggijeon Shrine was erected in 1410,[2] so construction of the Jeonju Hyanggyo had to follow sometime later.
At the time of the Second Japanese Invasion in 1592 the Gyeonggijeon Shrine and the Jeonju Hyanggyo were completely destroyed.
In 1603 the hyanggyo was moved to and rebuilt at its present Jeonju location.
The memorial enshrinement area centers on the Daeseongjeon (Confucian shrine hall) in the front, while the educational area centers on the Myeongyundang (lecture hall) that is located the rear.
