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.
This wooden building was designed as a replica of the traditional hanok house where Ewha Haktang first opened, and was constructed in May 2006 to commemorate Ewha’s 120th anniversary. With one underground and one ground floor and 983 m2 of total floor area, it is comprised of a regular exhibition hall whose theme is the history and vision of Ewha, a special exhibition hall, an education room and a prayer room, and helps visitors learn of Ewha’s role and significance in Korea’s modern and contemporary history. It stands across from Law Building, on the way up to Hanwoori Hall.
This building is comprised of three sections, each named to reflect Ewha’s core virtues: knowledge (jin), goodness (seon) and beauty (mi). It served as the first dormitory at the time of its building. Today the jin section houses the Ewha Institute for the Humanities while the seon section is used for faculty offices and mi serves as the cafeteria.
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.

Completed in February 2002 with two lower and seven upper levels, Ewha-POSCO Building has a LAN installed for giving lectures and conducting research, thus realizing education through multimedia communication networks. The College of Social Sciences is housed in the building and liberal arts classes are provided here.
Blocks A and B—two stone buildings located behind Jinseonmi-gwan—are connected to each other through the third and fourth floors. They house laboratories, the central equipment room and computer labs, as well as the administration office of the College of Natural Sciences. Block C is occupied exclusively by Institute of Molecular Life Science and Technology.
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.
