            Excerpt from the plaque:

Yeongnyeongjeon

Yeongnyeongjeon (Hall of Eternal Peace) is an annex to the main hall, Jeongjeon.  It was built in 1421 when Jeongjeon could no longer accommodate any more spirit tablets.  The name Yeongnyeong means “may the ancestors and descendants of the royal family live long in peace.”  The facilities and layout of Yeongnyeongjeon are similar to those of Jeongjeon, but the building is smaller and more intimate.  Like Jeongjeon, it has a two-tiered elevated stone platform in front.  The whole area is enclosed with walls, and three gates were built in the east, south, and west.  Yeongnyeongjeon had six spirit chambers when it was first built but was eventually expanded to 16 spirit chambers as we see it today.  Under the central raised section are four spirit chambers for ancestors of the preceding four generations of King Taejo, founder of the Joseon Dynasty.  A storage room for ritual implements was built to the east, and Akgongcheong (Hall of Musicians) was built outside the southwest wall.
