One hour tour: Ewha Welcome Center ─ Welch-Ryang Auditorium ─ Pfeiffer Hall (Main Hall) ─ Ewha Campus Complex (ECC)
This stone gothic-style hall has a relief carving of a cross on the upper section of the facade, marking Ewha’s identity as a Christian school. All university courses took place inside this hall from its completion in 1935 until the Korean War. It now serves as the campus’ main administration building and also houses the Ada Prayer Room. This historic building was designated by the government on May 31, 2002 as a Registered Cultural Asset Architecture.
Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including a stage that can accommodate 300 performers, this 2,700-seat auditorium serves mainly as a venue for worship services and school ceremonies for the entire Ewha community. The building has greatly contributed to the advancement of Korean art and culture as a venue for the presentation of research studies and as a concert hall. To this day, world-class artists continue to perform at Welch-Ryang Auditorium.
This is Korea’s largest underground campus structure, its design by world-renowned French architect Dominique Perrault based on an inventive new concept, with six floors and approximately 20,000m2 of total floor area. ECC features a design resembling a valley that runs through the former site of Ewha square and athletic field up to Pfeiffer Hall. Despite its underground location, the wide-open valley allows fresh air and daylight into the building, giving the impression of being above ground. The lower two levels are used as an underground parking lot with a capacity of 750 vehicles to reduce campus traffic. At the top of the building is a roof garden. All features represent a pleasant green campus, distinguishing this building from existing underground structures.
Established in 2013, the Welcome Center at Ewha Womans University is the first of its kind to open on a university campus in Korea, comprising an Information Desk, an Exhibition Lounge and a Gift Shop. The Information Desk offers maps and other materials assisting visitors in getting the most out of their Ewha campus experience. In the Exhibition Lounge, the permanent display highlighting the university’s history, traditions and vision for the future may be viewed year-around. Ewha Welcome Center is open to everyone—from prospective students of all ages to the Ewha community of some 190,000 alumnae, faculty, staff and students, and to visitors from near and far. The Center is open Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
