Surichigol Holy Ground is a Catholic sanctuary located deep in the mountains of Guksabong Peak in the western part of Gongju-si. It holds significance as a site where Korean Catholics organized themselves while hiding from persecution during the 19th century. Today, it is designated as a sanctuary dedicated to the Virgin Mary, providing a retreat house for Catholics to experience nature away from urban areas.
