Hyanggyo is an educational institution established by the country for the education and edification of local residents and performing rites to Confucius and various saints. Nampo Hyanggyo was first built in Daecheon-ri, Ungcheon-myeon, in the 13th year of King Taejong's reign (1413). It was moved to its current location in the 25th year of King Jungjong (1530), and the scale of Daeseongjeon was extensively repaired. The remaining buildings include Daesungjeon Hall, Myeongnyundang Hall, Oesammun Gate, Inner Sammun Gate, Dongjae, and Seojae. Daeseongjeon Hall is a ritual space with 3 bays in the front and 2 bays in the side. The roof is decorated with a hipped-and-gabled roof in the shape of eight arms from the side. Myeongnyundang is an auditorium where students gather and study, and the roof is a hipped-and-gabled roof. The size is 5 bays in the front and 2 bays in the side, and 3 bays in the middle have a floor and ondol rooms are placed on both bays. The overall arrangement is in the form of a former Confucian scholar with an educational space in the back and an educational space in the front. In the Daeseongjeon Hall, memorial tablets of Chinese and Korean saints, including Confucius, are enshrined. During the Joseon Dynasty, the country taught students with land, slaves, and books, but now the educational function has disappeared and only the ritual function remains.
