Anti-appeasement steles
Anti-appeasement steles were 19th century monuments built in Korea to ostracize Westerners. They were erected by Heungseon Daewongun at more than 200 major transportation hubs across the country, including the four streets of Jongno. They were built in 1871 (the 8th year of the reign of Emperor Gojong of the Joseon Dynasty). They were made of granite and were four cubits high, five cubits wide, and eight inches thick.
